Where to start, where to start?
Let's start with the WARNING:
Please understand that by reading my blog, you will be exposed to horrible language unbecoming a lady, but most fitting for an endurance athlete.
This blog will likely ramble on and on, seemingly without focus or direction.
Sometimes I will say things that will make you think I listen in on your phone calls, open your mail, and read your diary. It's true. I do.
Finally, I am a terrible blogger. I'll blog every day for a week then you might not hear from me for a month. I have no excuse for this behavior. None.
Let's talk History
I've done a lot of races. A.LOT.
Why am I here?
Because my oldest son said, "Everytime time you post one of your workouts on FB, I'm too tired to exercise myself."
And, we can't have that, can we?
What am I training for?
FIRST and FOREMOST: Ironman Boulder PR! Coach set my goal as 5:52. I laughed in his face. He wouldn't change it. I laughed some more, asked if he were crazy. He, of course, said, "No". At which point, I promptly puked. But ok, sure, whatever, fine.
Next, I'm running Rock n roll Denver with Mario. Our goal is to Release the Kracken. Now, I know that might sound easy, but if you've never run with me before: you.have.no.clue.
Then, 2012 is a mighty nice year. I've got IM Kansas (mostlikelybutstillthinkingaboutit) followed by The Redman Full, which is an Ironman distance race....that falls in Sept.
What did I do today?
8.5 mile run. 10 minute warm up, 3 x 6 min zone 4-zone5 with 3 minutes rest, then run until I hit 8.5 miles.
Then, I was supposed to swim. But I was feel a little, how do I say it? Cranky bitch...yes, perfect....at not sleeping last night. So, I opted to go to a movie instead. We saw Super 8. And I ate popcorn.
That's it for me
the real challenge will be if I manage to write more than the introduction and then race report.
