After eating pizza 3 days in a row - salmon or tilapia sounds sooooooo good! I so badly want to eat something healthy.
We made it back from Knoxville. I saw tons of people on mountain bikes around there (we were in a suburb - Farragut). And.....drumroll...... they were ALL wearing helmets. Contrast - unpacking the car - 4 people ride by my house on bikes and not a single one of them had on a helmet. Aargh!
I'm still waiting on my SS gift to arrive. I was hoping it wouldn't arrive this weekend, because whatever snacky thing was in there would melt. So - good thing. Maybe tomorrow. :)
I had it all last week. :( Just as I was really riding a lot, and managing to ride faster as well. All I wanted to do all week was ride my bike but all I did was go to work and come home and crash on the couch.Quote:

I could almost taste it. Life is good.
PRIDE PARADE!!!!
Seattle's Pride Parade will be on TV in 7 minutes. (KSTW Channel 11, from 6 pm to 8 pm) I'm so glad, cuz I was home in bed (alone) with the stupid cold that has been dogging my steps for a week now. Hooray! I'll get to see the parade after all!
IIIIIIII love a paraaaaaaade.....
Have a great time. I am astonished that they broadcast the whole parade! Patience, patience as your body heals...the bike will wait for you and be there for an adventure when you're all healed up. L.Quote:

The first groups in the parade were cycilsts or at least 2 wheeled; there were the Dikes on Bykes (misspelled to avoid the **'s) followed by SF's Bike Messengers, then the Mikes on Bikes, then AIDS Lifecycle Riders, Different Spokes, another group.... (I think Gay Games?)....lots of bikes.
We watched the parade for a while till hunger called and we headed for the Civic Center to find a bite to eat.
I ...gulp...signed up for the AIDS Ride again....gulp.
Mine was always "water, water, everywhere - but not a drop to drink"Quote:

they are just a bunch of guys on bike wearing name tags that say "Mike" :D
THAT is pretty d*mned funny.Quote:

And, as usual, by the end, I was on the floor doing push ups and crunches, because who can watch an IM on the couch? Nanci, I'll be ordering 2005's DVD with the next paycheck, and then I can return the favor. Dang, but I love triathlon.
Is there a tri where you don't run? swim, bike, skip? swim, bike, cartwheels, just anything but run :rolleyes:
You CAN walk, y'know...
(I'm gonna walk in my tri... it's cool.)
Heck, in 2003, one guy lay on the side of the road, unconscious for awhile. Was revived. Got up. Started walking. Ran again to finish. So, appearantly, you can nap in the middle of the run! :pQuote:

In '03, the astonishing story they highlighted was that of a Belgian, Mark Herreman, who finished 6th at Kona in '01. Later that year, he was paralysed from the waist down in a cycling accident. In '02, he attempted Kona again, powered only by his own arms. He didn't make it past the swim though; it turned out he had a kidney infection and was really sick. In '03, he was back. He finished the course with a handcycle and racing wheelchair. 140.6 miles. Incredible. And my excuse was....what? I'm sorry, I'm sure I had a reason I can't get out there and swim/bike/run...dang, where'd that thing get to? It is so cool to be the tiniest part of such a phenomenon. :D
