* 66.8 miles running
* 31.5 miles by bike
* 6800 meters swimming
* 6 strength sessions at the gym
* No races.
Thoughts
* Half-Marathon training going well. Big confidence boost from this weekend's 9 mile run.
* Triathlon training, not so much. It's that darn bike (and my aversion to it)
Plans
* Show up and *try* to have fun at Patriot in 2 weeks (Eeek!!)
* Show up and have fun at final splash & dash in series in 3 weeks
* Continue progress with Half-Marathon training
Other Tidbits
* On Saturday, Husband & I celebrated 24th anniversary of our first date. Yes, it is very cool that he remembers. But thinking about how long we've known each other and how much life has changed since then sure makes me feel old!!
* I'm sporting a new hair color as of Friday. A darker chocolate brown. It's a fairly drastic change from the highlights, but I like it. I hope it doesn't fade too quickly.
Congrats on 24 years since your first date! (Ours is easy to remember as we got married on the one year anniversary of our first date LOL).
ReplyDeleteLike the new hair!
MCM Mama
Congrats on the first date anniversary. Like Mama, mine is also easy to remember as it was on Halloween, don't ask.
ReplyDeleteLove the hair! I just colored mine last night. Same color, my grays were showing; all ten million of them, not pretty.
Congrats on 24 years! That's AWESOME. We're celebrating our 10 year dating anniversary in a few weeks, and it's very exciting.

ReplyDeleteHubby and I celebrated our 10-year dating anniversary in December. It's nice to remember... People are still shocked when they find out we've been together so long. (I'm 26, he's 27).
ReplyDeleteNice job on your training in August! Sounds like some fun plans coming up too.
Your hair looks great!
AMAZING 24 years!! Love love love the hair cut and color. Good numbers..
ReplyDeleteYour tri is right before mine. We'll have to help each other out. LOL (I wish we really could).
ReplyDeleteI'm not willing to give up my highlights yet. I may have to someday soon if the price keeps going up though. :-/
That's so cute that you celebrate your first date-versary! I don't even know when my husband and I had our first date (sometime in March, I believe).
ReplyDeleteLove the new hair color: It looks good on you!
Loving the new hue! Rock it with confidence and let that confidence flow over to your training! :)

ReplyDeletegood totals and nice hair! and so cute that husband remembered, he's a gem :)
ReplyDeleteYou can do tris without training much on the bike - you'll just be slower than you want :P
The darker shade becomes you!
ReplyDeleteI really need to take a cue from you and do a monthly tally. Maybe I'll give it a whirl in 2010, :)
24 years! that's exciting, congrats. and nice job on the nine miler last weekend and on your monthly totals.

Just reading through old posts as I'm totally behind. I too have an adversion to my bike. I always tell myself it's b/c I ride a creaky old mtn bike =).
