Finally slept well. Slept like a rock actually. Hopefully we can do it again tonight. Short ride after work. Run Friday. Off Saturday (or maybe a short brick). RACE SUNDAY!!

Yesterday was helping my wife set up her classroom. Got to set up a couple book shelves. Carry lots of books. Hang paper. Sounds dumb but my legs are tired today. Up and down from standing on desks to hang paper... and muscling book shelves into place. Little run tonight. Ride tomorrow.

Playing around last night... Uploaded some photos from the last race... and a video profile from the race as well. Yeah that is me on the bike... and my Mom yelling "Yeah, Jussy"... Rub it in... I deserve it.

Crazy weekend. Didn't get any workouts in... but did get a lot accomplished. I have decided that I am going with Power Gels for the race. I picked up a box this weekend. I have used them in training and I have found them to work the best for me. Plan is one every 30min. That means... up to 6 on the bike and possibly 4 on the run. I will also use GU2O and water on the bike. I don't know what I will use on lap 2 of the bike because I will most likely be out of GU2O and have not heard very good things about HEED. We will see. Light stuff this week... indoor pool is closed to cleaning... so no AM swimming. Sucks... but it is not like I have done much swimming the last couple weeks... hell, even last month. We will see if I try to sneak in at least a couple laps. Only thing left to worry about is weather. Tropical Storm Fay could make things a little messy on Saturday and Sunday. With the lack of rain, a big storm could easily push the bacteria level to high in the water and make the race into a duathlon. It could also be raining/storming for the race... which will blow. We will just have to see and play it by ear. T-6 days to the HIM. I can almost taste it ;)

Olympics kept me up again... or really I kept me up to watch them. Didn't make it through the womens gymnastics. I cut it off at 12:00am Maybe run tonight after work... maybe not... we will see. Kinda have the blahs about working out right now. Tomorrow is a corporate picnic at Kings Island. So I get to go walk around, wait in line and ride some roller coasters... I can log that right?
