absent blogger


 That's me... a tad bit stressed.  Not alot.. just a little... work is going to get nutty here for a while,  training for the half is almost non-existent, and just in general a little overwhelmed with not enough time in the day.  That being said,  I'm excited to have amazing opportunities at work,  excited to still be able to get a few runs in here and there, and still able to set up the trainer and ride for 45 minutes.

My shin is killing me.  I don't know why.  I'm icing,  I haven't ran in 5 days, so it doesn't have a reason.  I'll keep icing... 

Tomorrow,  Sunday,  I'm hitting the stairs.  That should be good.  I did 5 times up and down last time,  this go-'round,  my goal is 7.  I got this... 

Today,  Saturday,  is Valentines Day.  As usual,  Rob planned an amazing day.  Breakfast at the Hurricane (bring on the Bloody Marys!),  then shopping for dinner at the Market,  and a ride on the Duck !  Pretty damn fun.  Dinner is margaritas and fish tacos.. NICE !

While I was having  my breakfast of champions at the Hurricane I read thru the latest edition of 'competitor northwest' magazine.  Good stuff...
