Didn't run this a.m.  Donated blood last night.  Still felt a bit blah.  Will probably swim tonight and maybe stationary bike.  Singles volleyball, too.  This week has been tough to get myself going.  Weather hasn't helped.  Sometimes it seems like this blasted triathlon will never get here.  And sometimes it seems like it is coming too fast and I won't be prepared!  71 more days!

I can't believe I was running in the snow this morning!!!  What's up with that?  It was a good slow run.  Felt like a wimp for not doing the normal six miles, but running Provo City 1/2 marathon tomorrow.  Swam last night.  Didn't get the whole workout in because the gym felt it necessary to close at midnight.  What's up w/ that???  Gym shouldn't close until my workout is done!!!  :-)

Might play vball tonight.  Hope it doesn't ruin performance for tomorrow!  I hope it doesn't rain, snow, sleet, or hail tomorrow.

This was a good race overall.  Didn't get the time I hoped for, but still pretty good.  The weather........well, it was far from ideal!  Rained most of the way, hailed some, and snowed some towards the end.

Did fairly well the first 8 miles.  Ran w/ a friend.  Couldn't have done as well w/o him pushing me along, though he claims I pushed him.  An imaginary bowling ball was tied to my ankle at mile 8.  It was all mental after that.

I was so cold when I finished.  Retrieved my wet clothes that I tied to a pole right before the race started.  Went to my car and changed clothes.  Went back and got the Magleby's breakfast!  That was yummy!  French Toast is so much better than pancakes in my humble opinion.

Next race of great importance is Echo Triathlon......67 days!
