My car came home tonight!

But looking forward to sharing ride with Salsa . . . DH can have the car for the weekend so he can do all the chores that we couldn't get done without the car.

Training update: Rode the Dahon to work a record number of times while the car was out of commission these last two weeks. Also got in weekend riding in the form of biking several miles to/from Pilates and to/from grocery store/farmers market.

Hip feels ready to start some light running, except I did an awkward dismount from the bike on my way home on Monday and pulled an upper quad. Right by the "good" hip. The pull isn't high enough to be the hip flexor, but I've been taking it easy the last couple of days.

Today: massage. Very critical part of training!

Wahine, how are the temps where you are?

I don't have a wetsuit but I have a suit that I've used for kayaking -- keeps the wind out, is kinda splashproof, and I have swum in it -- it lets the cold water in but I warm up again immediately as soon as I'm out of the water.
