The past few days have been great. Spending much needed quality time with family and friends. After all the catching up, gift exchanges, and tall tales…. my brother and I did some great training while I was in his town.
Wednesday night was an interval brick class. I went in – being very overwhelmed and intimidated. [...]

I am back in the midwest and today I decided to go for a short 3 mile run in the neighborhood of my youth. It was nice to run along the country roads and the air was so invigorating.
It is so quiet here – the sounds of trees swaying, snow crunching, and an occasional dog [...]

How did he know??? I didn’t realize I mentioned it in my letter to the big guy in red.
Super Husband and I opened some gifts before we travel home (to avoid having to ship them back and forth) – and low and behold, AERO BARS!

Well, less than a week to go and our home is a hustle-and-bustle right now. Super Husband is finishing up his latest project / gig as we speak. I’ve been training in the pool so much I’ve started forming gills.
Wednesday I cranked out another 53 laps (I thought for sure I had 55 – alas, [...]

Several years ago – my life changed for the SO MUCH BETTER on this day.

Brrr…it’s cold!!! We awoke to temps in the 40’s! *gasp*
Just kidding….it wasn’t “arctic cold”- but it IS funny to listen to folks out here talk about how cold it is.
Anyway – last night I attended Masters Swim and cranked out 56 laps (2800 yards). I was on a roll, I guess.

St. Nick stopped by and left me – NOT COAL – but some great new, padded cycling gloves (except the tops of mine are bright red and pink). I am so excited!
YAY!!!!
