tri808 - 2010-03-02 3:08 PM I haven't had girl scout cookies in a while...but I remember those peanut butter ones...

Anything chocolate chip is a death trap for me.



Those peanut butter ones are great.

Somehow the other day at the grocery store I mustered the willpower to walk past the girl scouts selling cookies there.  Still not sure how I did it. 

You MONSTER!!!!!  How could you possible walk past those girls???!!!!

Well, Since it is late on March 2, I guess I better get my goals up.   They are a bit shorter than they have been the past couple of months, but work has been a bear lately.  Now that I finished my half marathon that I've been training for, I need to plan the rest of my season.  

At anyrate.   Here I am -- Ready to get it done!

brick94513 - 2010-03-02 5:15 PM I'm riding a Titus Motolite II.  I built the bike myself.  Absolutely love it!

Yes, I prefer an Xterra over a traditional tri anyday.  I just wish I could find a HIM distance off-road tri.  Now that would be wonderful....


Nice on the bike.  I am getting ready to build a cross/touring/gravel bike up with the help of my LBS.  Very stoked about that!

A new 29'er full suspension is on the list but not until next year!

HIM Xterra - man that is sick - that would hurt something fierce!!!!

I'm pretty sure there's one out here in Utah (Ogden, Ut)
We're not THAT far from Cali

If you find it, PLEASE let me know.  My primary goal for 2010 is to qualify for XTERRA Nationals in Park City, UT.

On another note, I love riding in UT.  I made it to Moab last year, but missed Park City.  It was a family trip and had to get north to Brigham City, so we could see the Golden Spike Monument first thing in the morning.  Either late this year or early next year, I'm going to do the 142 mile ride from Loma, CO to Moab, UT on the Kokopelli Trail.  I would really like to tackle it self-supported, but might opt for assistance of a LBS the first time.

So I went swimming today...is it weird that I really love pulling? 

I was going to do a 500 yard pull and as I neared the end I decided to make it a 750.  As I neared 750 yards I decided to make it an even Mile.  As I approached a mile I decided that 2000 yards would make a nice round number.  I was considering making it 2500 yards, but the pool was going to close soon and I wanted to have time to shower. 

Anyway, I put in a 4900 yard swim.  I think that is the longest swim workout I've ever done.

It's girl scout cookie season?!?!?!???  How is it that I haven't seen anyone selling girl scout cookies? I don't consider it will power to walk past someone selling girl scout cookies.  I consider it insanity. Every year we tell people to come by and we will buy some and we never end up getting them from the same girl two years in a row. I'm always good for a dozen or so boxes. Thin mints and Samoas.  Gotta love em. If there is anyone in the West Jordan, UT area selling them, PM me and I'll give you my info so you can come by and sell me some.

I LOVE mountain biking! Moving has really put a bite in my riding time. I used to be able to stop on my way home from work during the week and would often do a 20 mile ride through the mountains (up to over 10k feet and back down) on Saturday mornings and be home before noon. Now it takes me almost two hours to meet up and shuttle to the trail head. Its been too long since I've had a good ride on my mt bike.

Busy day at work today.  Got home late, went for a run, ate dinner and now its time to relax on the computer for a few minutes before I head off to bed. I hope I can get these work projects knocked out soon.  I don't like 10+ hour work days. I'm too lazy and would rather spend time having fun.

We have some work to do.  East is almost to the end of page 8.  I'm sure they'll be to page 10 by the time we start our day.  It doesn't help that Bill is posting on their side too. Come away from the dark side bill.  Walk back into the light.
