Evondo's Group - CLOSED! (Page 70)

Wow, the testerone in here is kind of stifeling.

Hi guys.

So uh, no one is going to believe this, but I totally busted my a.ss in the parking lot this morning, twisted my ankle hard and chipped a bone.  I just got done at the ER (again) and they put me in a soft cast and on crutches for 4-6 weeks.  I guess I took a chunk out of that bone on the outside of your ankle that sticks out a little bit (yah, anatomy isn't my strong suit).

This is somewhat ironic as I had the same EXACT injury on my left ankle a week before my wedding 2 years ago.

Eventually I will stop wearing heels methinks, but until then, I'm a walking target.

They say bad luck comes in threes, so this should be the last of mine.

Now everyone please laugh with me so that I do'nt start crying, mmm kay?

Oh, and yes, I am considering wrapping myself in bubble wrap for the rest of my life just to be safe.

My, I don't even know what to say.  Other then I'll ship you some bubble wrap.  At least you got a soft cast, that will make life easier.  I recommend getting a life alert button and working from home.  Hang in there, things will start to look up soon.

Oh my dear Nicole - you are a walking disaster but we love you anyway!  Things are bound to get better!  Just make KFK wait on you hand and foot from now on!

Sorry to hear about your misfortune. Heal well and fast.

Nicole ~ sorry about your accident. I hope you heal quickly!EvD & Fatty... So it's like that huh? Bustin' chops... I have swam 1:40's in training too... When fatty does it in an official race ~ you can continue to bust chops... When he completes 2.4 miles in a race... You can continue to bust chops... Otherwise it's useless & pointless! Keep coaching him! Remember you have to bike & run too! As far as the younger, skinnier, polk-a-dotted, dreamcrushing weenie... Suck it! Ha! Ironman Texas 70.3 won't get here quick enough! I love the testosterone laidened trash talkin'... Moto, moto... Gotta lotta motivation! LOL! It's On Like Donkey Kong!

Geez girl, get that bubble wrap ASAP! Hope you recover quickly!

Just trying to get some more purple in your logs, nothing like a little competition to motivate

You & your lil' padawan have awakened the sleeping giant! LMAO! My focus is nicely sharpened! So thank you! Purple is as purple does!

Trin2bfast and Fattyfat,

What's does it matter if Fatty beats you out of the water???? This 70.3 virgin is going to beat him across the finish line, the only line that matters. Now I just need his address so I know where to deliver the beer for his post work out recovery drink..... (I am going to need all the help I can get).

No worries JP. Fatty's gonna blow his wad tryin' to beat me in the swim & you'll be able to roll past & never look back... On a non-smack talkin' note! Checked UPS, and the PowerTap is in Houston and scheduled to be delivered tomorrow! Let the training with power begin. Wooo hooo!

the best thing you can do is grow some hair.  running you down at the houston half was easy... follow the bouncing bald head. 


i saw your 288 post.  nice job reviving it!  but call or email jeremy as last week or the week before RacerRick's group was down there and the water was still around 51.  no way jose!

Sweet! Let the training begin

Just checked UPS and the guy was at my front door and he had my wetsuit...... Yippie! JW will I get faster just riding next to you and the powertap?

If anyone is interested, Ken and I have a 55-60 mile ride scheduled for Sunday morning. Weather will be about 60 with some sun. The route goes from Friendswood, Seabrook, Kemah, Dickinson, Alvin, and back to Friendswood.

I am so sorry Nicole I hope you heal up fast and feel better soon.

Fatty,

But I'm training for this race...... Regardless, it's going to be a blast. Lets just make sure we're all at the start line in healthy mind and body.

JP

Lonestar Hermann Memorial Half Ironman is gonna look more like a bar fight in the water than a swim.  

Gotta be cool going out on the bike having the pros coming back at you.  That is assuming they are faster than Mr. Power Tap.  I think fatty is gonna drown Justin so the bike may never come into play.

You are dangerous - stop wounding and start healing will ya?

I thought I saw it as Hermann Memorial yesterday - Much better!

Uh, did you forget the sarcasm font??
That serioulsly sucks. Heal up and maybe it's time to start thinking about some kind of voodoo or sacrificing small farm animals to make things right with the training gods....

hehehehe ...now that's funny. Total ASNR (Acute Spontaneous Nasal Reflux) nearly all over the computer. I love it.

On an unrelated note, Nicole ... heal up girl. Ouch! No more injuries. Feel better and take it easy.

Happy Friday everyone! Thankfully only one more day of work before the weekend. Unfortunately I'll probably be working some on Sunday but I can't complain too much. Anyone have any fun super bowl plans? Getting in all the training this weekend too right? 

I am testing out sig lines for the next few days. I may take votes next week.

Oh Dear lord Nichole.... Can someone please wrap you in charmin? Make KFK take good care of you and milk it up. Get well soon.

You will have a good time!  That guy puts on a heck of a show.  Ken and I went years ago when we were dating and it really was one of the best concerts I have ever seen.

I am about to head to the gym for some chlorine therapy, now that I"ve told you guys I have to go.
The rest of the day will be devoted to some homeschooling and getting the house ready for our Sunday get together.  I volunteered our house for our homeschooling coop group for the Super Bowl, most of these folks don't have TVs (it's a pretty crunchy group).

The oldest has a church retreat this weekend and our other boy is beginning preparations for the Cy-Fair livestock show where he will show his pig.  He has a mock showing this evening and piggy gets shaved tomorrow.

Saturday I have a planned bike ride I am looking forward to I just wish it was going to be warmer.  Maybe I'll stop at Bike Barn today to see if they have any toe covers.
