Strong To Quite Strong

I hope everyone had a great weekend. Congratulations to Tiggs & Kelli on solid finishes at Ironbabe & my(ok I share her with the rest of the team, but my blog my coach) Coach K for a first place overall female finish at DeGray Lake Half Tri.

I had a strong to quite strong (name that movie line) training weekend and some fun social events (reads drinking). Of course a recovery week on the training front that's why I come out like a champ. LOL! Bike ride was scheduled Saturday for 25 miles pulled out 22 miles at 16.9mph due to my lower gears not working I cut off a few miles. I had to take every "hill" out of the saddle to gain momentum. It was rough on my fatigued quads that have worked 6 SPIN classes this week. I worked everyday sometimes twice a day except Friday since last Sunday in addition to my tri training.

I dropped off SOW at the bike shop and of course Ken, from Bike Lane was all over it. He will also put one of those thingys I can drink from on the aero bars with SOW's small frame it only allows room for one bottle. Ken is so awesome! This place is like the "Cheers" of bike shops. Let me tell you, he just knows my name and has a cold one waiting for SOW and I every time(ok I exaggerate at times). I let SOW spend the night since I don't need him back till Thursday.

I did my long run of 8 miles Sunday morning at Z2. There was no pain but my Z2 pace has slowed down a plenty since pre injury. I do not fret it, I am sure it will come back. Besides if I got all depressed over slow miles I would be on antidepressants, no doubt. After the run rushed in grabbed a G2 with a granola bar and off to work for a 9AM SPIN class. In the afternoon Shane and I went to a movie, "Cristina Vicky Barcelona". My widely famous movie review to come this week (again, only famous in my mind).

Random Thought of The Day:

Is a direct quote from Lil' Buster, "Turn on the air Mom, I'm sweating my balls off."

Where does my 5 year old Lil' Buster learn such things?!?

Movie Line is from,

"Meet The Parents"

Kevin(Owen Wilson): Are you a homeowner, Greg?
Greg(Ben Stiller): No, no, I rent.
Kevin: Oh.
Jack(Robert DeNiro): So, things are going real, real well for you, aren't they, eh, Kevo?
Kevin: Gosh, things have been going so great lately. I got in early on some wireless I.P.O.s, and the stuff just skyrocketed from there.
Greg: Wow.
Kevin: What about you, Greg? What line of work are you in?
Greg: I'm in health care.
Kevin: Yeah, so you know what I'm talking about. There are a lot of Benjamins to be made now with biotech stuff. I don't have to tell you that. How's your portfolio?
Greg: I'd say strong...to quite strong.
