So tonight was my first night to reallllly try to learn flip turns.  I generally managed ok.  Have a long way to go, but I'll get there.

After that, bilateral breathing.

After that, other strokes.

And of course, I'm going to have to scream at someone on the staff tomorrow.

1. We can't have Mutti eating that shyte. It's far too rich. No, much better I, uh, take care of it.

2. Actually, what she does is take some, eats some, forgets she had some but still has the taste, so she goes and gets another piece, repeat until she barfs.

3. Conversely, she'll take a few bites then forget she's eating it ... leaves it there for 3 days or weeks or months ... finds it later and tries eating it again. See what happens from #2.

4. SOMEONE obviously not from our staff gave us brownies. I was not informed of any such gift, so I can't properly thank the sender. This--and phone calls and even visits from important people when their contact info does not get recorded--happens ALL THE TIME and it is a huge pet peeve of mine.

It's going to cost us $40,000 to legally fire our entire staff. It would cost less to creatively dispose of two of them (even if I got caught) and let the rest figure out if they still want jobs or not.

I like the last option, it has much more class.

I remember that for your IM Melbourne entry, you put down something like 'biographer of serial killers' as your day job. Imagine what your title could be after sorting your staff issues!Wink

did I post this?  Two girls are doing the RAAM and I'm buying the gear coz i love it.

This looks cool.  And RAAM is nuts.  I watched a documentary on it once.  That is one far out event.

One of my riding partners still holds the mixed tandem record set 20 years ago. I think I posted this before, but I think the world of Sue:

Taking the pics???

And what's poutine. Please let it sound nicer than 'grits'.

Grits is just easier to spell that polenta.

Artemis - 2013-04-18 9:35 AM In true Manatee spirit, I signed up for a 10k yesterday.  I realized this morning that I will be racing 4 weeks in a row. 

Me too! Sorta. I have the Metric Cenury on May 4 (not technically a race), a sprint the 12th, an Oly the 19th and a 10k the 27th. This weekend DH and I are doing a bicycle winery tour. Def not a race Laughing

I've got 5K, half marathon, horse show, wine tour (in a limo - but it's like a marathon of drinking!) over the next four weekends!

hahaha! Limo seems to be the safer of the two. Buuuut... guess I've never heard of "Don't drink and pedal"

During Vineman last year, during the second loop I passed a lady doing a wine tour on a bike.  I said to her, I bet you didn't think that you'd be in the middle of an ironman today! Laughing

Topic B: I'm setting up my next tri. Next weekend is my 20yr hs reunion, and we'll be in Cali for four days (two of them driving). I was thinking of doing an inaugural "women only" tri called Esprit de She on May 5. Sprint is a .5mi OWS....ummm, never done OWS Surprised , and I'd have 4 prep days cut out the week before.  My other option was a sprint on May 12. More prep time but with serpentine pool (twice through for 400, YUK!) .

As I was talking with DH last night, he offered an alternative plan that I think I like...there is a much shorter super sprint for Esprit de She (400 OWS, 6.6bike, 1.7run) that would give me the OWS experience and only having women to scare the pee out of me (it's a lake, peeing is ok yes? Tongue out). Then on May 19 there is the Tempe International Tri Sprint- 400 OWS, 12.5 bike, 5k. It will have men to batter me, but it's a beach start, I will have one OWS under my belt already, and two more prep weeks.

Whew, sorry...that was a lot of race talking, but I have to write it to get through it. Pretty sure I just wrote myself into it. Now to see if I can get in Laughing

 

It sounds like these are your current options:

The Super Sprint + May 19 event does sound like a good option. It sounds fun!

Hey, both are in Tempe Town Lake!  Same swim?

Very crazy in Boston/surrounding areas right now.  Another life lost (police officer) and one evil guy eliminated.  They seem like they have absolutely no idea where the other suspect (#2) is...scary.

I'm reading about the manhunt and everything being shut down while he's located.

Sad, sad sacrifice.

I was thinking about this officer when I was driving this morning. I thought about putting my mourning stripe on my badge because this one really hits us nationally, and us as runners. I also thought about wearing my badge with the mourning stripe for the memorial ride in a couple weeks. Thoughts? Too much? I'm not one to play the "I'm a cop" card.
