I've decided.

1.2 mi swim, 56 mi bike, 1/2 marathon.

Dear friends, I'll see you in 4 months after I'm done training. :-(

I think i can, I think I can.

I'll be publishing my nasty workout schedule in two weekends. To
celebrate this, I'm running a nasty 1'/2 marathon in the same location
this Saturday (yikes, that's manana!)

Oh, and happy belated cinco de mayo!

just 5 weeks till!
London, Vienna, Budapest, Florence, and Prague!

Some day I'd like to go to Bombay, Lima, Cairo, Sydney, Istambul, and
Capetown. Some day soon.

Less then one week till I know if I got the Mac contest. Probably didn't :(

why am I always so tired?
Du'h! It's because I forget I worked out. Like right now - why are my
arms hurting? because I swam 1.5 miles 3 hours ago. Weird that a
person can forget that.

Tonight I managed to do the following after getting home from work at
8: talking to: Mom, LT, Addie, Gina, Tess. Finding a czech tutor;
walking dog, swimming, getting groceries, dropping off flowers at the
boyfriend just to say hello, hanging with Holly and Linda, and
stopping by the bar to see Jen and Jimmy and gang, playing with the
cat, and miscelaneous cleaning activities, not to mention this dog.

Why am I so tired? D'uh!

did I hear that right?
Umm, Irene? Would you ever want to live downtown? I mean, if I sold my
place... and we bought one together, it would probably be a pretty
nice one - with a yard for Molly... Don't you think?

I'm obviously not getting enough sleep this week. Somebody pinch me.

My pathetic results... By the way, it took about a minute to cross the
finish line, and this wasn't chipped. the first 2 miles, because you
have to run on the sidewalk, I was running slow because of people
traffic. The last 4 miles I walk/hopped. So I made probably very
excellent time in the middle, just bummed that I wouldn't know how
well I did cuz of my leg!!!

553 182 44 F25-29 4651 2:19:29 10:39 IL CHICAGO

Notes about this race:

1. No excuses next year! I'm coming back!
2. this is on a nice paved forest preserve trail course along the lake
and new housing developments.
3. about 10 people came out to watch us run
4. there are 600 other racers.
5. no running in the street/no traffic blocks, only traffic guards
6. bring lots of food. There were enough water stations to not carry
water with - I carried water all the way but didn't have to use it.
7. wear layers - lake breeze
8. get there early, else you won't find parking
9. pre-register - the lines are pretty long
10. get a really hot guy to drive you and wait for you at the finish line :-)
6.

Jealous
When I grow up, I want to be like Ben. WWW.bensaunders.com. Ben, a
real life superhero who I track daily through his blog, takes really
cool photos and always finds ways to inspire me in my quest to pretty
much maintain a level of physical fitness. Now Ben's doing the London
Marathon. Umm, that's about the easiest race Ben's ever done. So
maybe, some day, if I am good enough to do a marathon.... I can be
running in the same race that Ben does. Wow, I'll be so priviledged.

In the meantime, bummer, I screwed up (intentionally - don't know
where my knee stands right now) and the registration for the marine
core DC marathon is closed. Crap. Now I have to pick another marathon.
