Well, I had to start somewhere!

Yes people...Lane found the pool !!! 

and it felt good to be back in there!  Now, I just need to get back there consistently.

Faster pace run around the neighborhood. A little more than a month out from Memphis in May, so I am going to do more faster paced runs in my training until then, and then fall back to the Z2 training. My long runs each week will still be in Z2.

A little less than 30 weeks to go till IMFL, so time is now to start with the full training plan.  Yeah, I know, I need to start training before I can call it a training plan.  But things are starting to fall in place here and I am running out of excuses.  :)

I have made a few changes to my race sched in prep for IMFL.  I am cutting out Buffalo Springs Lake HIM and will only be doing 2 OLY's (MAY/JUL) and one HIM (SEP) before the November race date.  I am tired of traveling and want to stay local and train, train, train.  Plus, I have the Team in Training Program to "run" starting in June.  However,  I am considering a training weekend to Panama City Beach in the mix just to feel out the bike course.  Any takers???

By the way....not meaing to ignore everyone, but I hate dial-up, therefore my time online is limited.  I appreciate the inspires and will be back to high-speed and wireless in few days.  You guys are great!  And to also have someone volunteer to jockstrap for me at IMFL by someone that I haven't even met yet, well other than on BT.  This place is great!  Thanks again Cindy!  You will enjoy the play time with all the other BT jockstrappers at IMFL as well !!! 

Wanted to do a longer run, but it is all I had in me.  I have been eating healthier, but not nearly enough in the last week or so. Major fueling problems.  Oh well, better than no workout at all. 

I need to go back to work so that I can get some rest.

quick run around the neighborhood.

As you all can tell, or maybe not, I have been quite busy with the new house!  Too many details that I have been busy with.  Contractors for the fence, estimates for the pool, painters, electricians, movers etc. AND A NEW PUPPY!!!  I bought a white lab and have been spending some quality male bonding with the new pup!  Decided not to go with the name Kona...just didn't fit the champagne color of this lab.  So I decided on CHAMP....as in short for the CHAMPagne color.   I will try to post pics later.

The workouts did take a break, but I knocked out a 5 miler yesterday and will get back out for uanother run later today. Done...now I will attempt to load some pics of the pup via dial-up.
