mndymond - 2010-06-26 7:32 PM Ok...I'm in post ride slump phase right now...grocery shopping was interesting...I think I need to save grocery shopping for when I am not in post ride slump.

It is confirmed...I look like an owl. Whoo whoo! And I'm getting all freckly...great...

Going to scavenge more food...


First off, congrats on the 100k.  If you're like me you are ravenous after a ride.  NEVER go grocery shopping hungry.  Your pocketbook will thank you


Thx Neal! I feel like a zombie right now...so my posts might not make sense...haha

Well 1) technically I'm not spending my money...it was grocery shopping for the house...and my grandfather won't let me pay...he leaves money in strategic zones and hassles me to take it...so its not my pocketbook perse...2) I had a list and I only bought what was put on the list...(Okay...maybe I added a couple of things...maybe...)


Well, I'm understanding your posts.  Not sure what that means....

Not your pocketbook?  Watch out!  I'd have problems getting through the store.  Oooh, ice cream!  Oooh funyuns!  Oooh lucky charms!  Oooh steak!  Yeah that money would be gone quickly.


Maybe it means that you are a zombie too? haha.

I did buy ice cream..and I'll buy steak when I'm back in Alberta...Its just not the same on the coast...I'll eat fish while I can. Lucky charms=blech

what are funyuns? (I have never heard of this term, nor seen it in Canadian grocery stores...)


Onioned flavored something or other:



Good for a marginal amount of time before you throw the rest of the bag away.




Lucky charms......what?  What is wrong with you?


Those look gross...not going to lie to you...and we def don't have them in Canada...(there is probably a reason for this...haha)

Nothing is wrong with me!!!  SurprisedI don't like those flash frozen marshmellows!!! (PS...I know how they flash freeze them...don't ask why I know things like this)...

I like non-sugar cereal...like...multigrain cheerios..and shreddies...rice crispies...chex...

Please don't tell me you like Trix too? cough cough gag hack blech*


Actually I am not a fan of the sugared cereals.  Rice chex is my all time favorite.  Let it get slightly soggy and mmmmmmmm!!!


I actually can't get over how gross those funyuns look...haha...and the onion flavour...*shiver...

I haven't had Chex in so long!!! I can't find it anymore in the store...I think its another thing that was taken away!!! Or...I'm just not looking hard enough...which is possible...


Actually they are quite good until you eat about 5 or 6 of them, then they get gross.  Onion flavor isn't as bad as you think.  No chex in Canada? That's a crying shame!

I know!!! It is a shame :'( I lovvvvvveeee them...Oh well...looks like I have to go down to the states more...I've got 4 trips planned in the next yr! Seattle, San Fran, Maui and New York!!! Hopefully customs let me through with boxes and boxes of it!

They are good for 5-6...how is that even worth it...haha...

Ok. Night night Neal (and anyone else who is up). Eagerly awaiting the photos from the epic brother fight of 2009.

I'm sleepy and just want to go lie down.

Okkkk......

Well...legs are feeling it from yesterday but a solid dose of advil made it into a mild background ache. My face is a bit tingly too, got some sun and wind yesterday. Got quite a bit planned for today...I'm just going to head to the gym and see how it goes.

Priority 1--Run...I think I'll just do some intervals with an iTrain program on my ipod. This feels like the only way I'm going to get intensity done today.

Priority 2--Recovery Spin/Core/Physio

Priority 3--Swim?

We will see. I need to go pick up some more Gu too...and some powerbars...I'm low on provisions it seems.

Hope the recovery beers have worn off Neal. Hope everyone else is having a good sunday.

Okay...enough procrastinating...later.

Quiet in here.  Not much going on for me today.  Sat on my deck and read all morning all the while thinking I should be out doing something.  I'm giving the legs a rest today so as not to impair the later workouts this week.  I did just finish up a swim workout though, so I wasn't a complete slug today.

Hey Ghoulies! After many months of waiting, Tom is a triathlete!!!! I had a great race today and it was even more enjoyable than I thought it would be. I finished in 1:22:43 (500m, 20k, 6k, 3/9 in the Clyde division) but they haven't posted splits yet. Once I do, the RR will be up.

THANK YOU to all of you for all of the support, advice, and juju over the last 8 months. You're all incredible, and this race was made even better knowing I had you guys to share it with. I hope you are all having a great weekend!

Well did a swim, bike, run in reverse order today...Run felt pretty good....more or less was intervals. I've figured out that my glut bothers me most on uphills, other than that I don't really notice it anymore.

By the time I hit the swim I was just kinda meh. I think my sensory capacity was out of wack because I think I checked about 10 times to make sure that yes, I actually was wearing a suit. It didn't feel like the straps were up, so I kept looking down to make sure my suit was still where it should be! (Apparently flashing people at the pool is inappropriate?!)

Now I'm just zoned out in a chair. Pretending to be listening to Obama discuss the fallout of the G8/G20. I should turn it off...Put on something more exciting...hmm..what's on? Sex and the City...ok...better...haha

Nice pictures Neal!

For the record Funyuns are an essential food when you are in college. I don't know if I've eaten them much since I've been out though.

I was out of it yesterday after my run. I just felt like I couldn't get cool. I stayed in the house in the A/C the rest of the day, but I was just hot. I took my temp twice and I had a slight fever. Not sure if I'm brewing something or it was just because of my long run in the heat. I couldn't bring myself to take an ice bath, but I did take a cool shower when I got back.

I feel better today, so who knows.
