Brendan just killed us this morning. 6 sets on the vertimax, then a whole bunch of other core stuff. urgh...I've now got a sore back.

Sport
  • Stretching
  • 20m

Stretching after core class

It's now Friday afternoon and I'm thinking about eternity....I think for T3 I'll try something new. Anyone need a slightly used speedo?

 

 

So I go to sleep for just a few hours and already they start talking about me behind my back...man I'm glad at least one of them is back. Soon both bookends will return and life will return to normal. Sigh.

Crack of stupid doesn't seem so bad anymore, something to look forward to.

Time to be pummeled into a jello-like, quivering mess by Brendan.

I just didn't feel like it this morning.

I guess I needed the sleep. I woke up at 5, saw the rain, made a bunch of excuses and went back to bed, sleeping in until 7:30.

I guess I needed the sleep!

Decided to ignore the heat and go for a quick bike ride. There was a nice breeze out there, which was nice, except when I had to cycle against it...The "breeze was gusting about 40 kph" Had the bike squeak on the BB removed at the lbs today, now there is a new, louder, more annoying creek on whe seat/seatpost. yeah!

It is too damn humid. I turned around because of lightning, but I'm glad I did, it was just too too too...out there.

Urg...it is just too hot. 23 c at 5:20 am!

Out to Pense...think about it!
headwind on return 30k. focused on 90-95 rpm spinning, except on last 5 k, where I focused on speed, averaging 36kph.
Good ride!

 7 pm update

I decided to go for a spin on the dirty girl...Nice ride back into headwind again...but fun! 

Noon Update.

Okay, it's official. I am a rain god. Just as we were driving up to the Valley, the skies opened up and and lightning crisped the air and brightened the horizon..

So no swimming. Swimming and lightning are not conducive to each other...except at Pike Lake, but once is enough for me.

7 a.m.


Weeds, heat and swimmer's itch...That's what I'm looking forward to today on my swim across Last Mountain Lake. Go to Google and look at Lumsden Beach SK if you want to see it.

If you don't hear from me again. The weeds got me.
