the post that goes nowhere

My plug for today: my creepy blog friend Jon over @ SwiCycloRun requested an email interview from ME about my IMLP experience, as well as other points in my triathlon "career." As a relative newcomer to the sport (been multi-sporting since 2007) and eager to self-promote, I happily complied. You can read the interview here.

Shameless plug over.

I am starving. Do you ever have that feeling where you eat, and eat, and eat, and eat, and EAT, and are NEVER full? That is me right now.

I got a little tipsy last night. Yes, it was a Tuesday night. That is all I will say about that. Don't judge me.

Today is one of those days where my goal is to simply make it through in one piece. I am tired, hungry, and really, really tired. Like, I may fall asleep while swimming laps later. That is how tired I am! I will go to bed early tonight!

Life is boring with no Ironman training stories!

It is official - I am riding the Syracuse 70.3 bike course on Saturday. I promise a full report of the course sometime shortly after. Rumor has it that there is a giant elephant statue along the course. I'm pretty excited to witness this! It may even top the Jesus statue that you see if you ride around Canandaigua Lake.

Summer is almost over, which means fall is almost here! Fall is my absolute favorite season. It always sparks my nostalgia over things such as running high school XC and late season horse shows. Fall is the PERFECT time to train for a marathon. The air is crisp, the leaves are turning, and you can actually run without losing 10 lbs of sweat. School is starting back up again (although I am not currently going to school). Hoodies and jeans are back in the wardrobe.

I can't wait. :)
