A few days late but....

Long run suckas!!

Apparently this means I can will my way through 13.1 miles. Scary. 

Since I did peak week with Zett (awesome TNT pace setting and pain distracting buddy). This weekend calls for a slightly shorter run in my book.

In other apparent news.  I am certain there is a mosquito in my apartment having a field day. Love slash hate you Houston, love slash hate.

last game at the Rob

11:51 PM Posted by brit , , No comments

 Run keeper stats....11:25 mi. WTF.  I clearly need to start all my runs with chevelle and harder rock and then progress to electronic.  Amazing.  This has been a good week of running. Because my first 3 days of running started off bad.  Very crappy.  I was really rethinking this whole half marathon thing.

GOALS:
Day 1- 4miles Actual: 4
Day 2-4miles  Actual:3.9
Day 3-5miles Actual:3.34
Day4-3miles (turkey trot!) Actual: Precious, precious sleep. Took Turkey Day off & did 3.59 Fri
Day5-5miles Actual:6.38
Bonus Awesomeness- Pull my bike off the trainer and do a ride!!

I still have time for bonus awesomeness tomorrow.  Maybe.  I don't know if it was the turkey trot day of rest or what, but Friday and Saturday were a lot better than mon/tues/wed.



And in other news...
Last football game of the season. And last game ever at Robertson Stadium. 
It's been fun Rob. Looking forward to the new stadium in 2014
Yay!!! I've missed winning!

Which is cheaper?

2:28 PM Posted by brit , , , , No comments

 I thought about this recently. Which is cheaper?

Sunscreen, butt butter, deodorant, halo headband, HR monitor, CO2 and dispenser, wireless speakers, GU's, gloves, bike shorts, bike jersey, socks, bandana, road ID. Not pictured: helmet, gatorade, extra tubes, hand bike pump, floor bike pump, bike rack,  tire levers, clip in shoes, water bottles, oh and BIKE.


Shoes, socks, HR monitor

Clearly, I started with the wrong sport!!! So expensive!!! And I just added new tires and new tape since white handlebar tape starts to look real crappy after 1000+miles.

So I've been slacking....not on doing life and whatnot. But on blogging...my bad. But alas...

Doing life included:
  • a morning run with Lillie and harlie today.  
  • a brick  (hehe -@ made up tri words) with Andrea last night at Memorial Park. 
  • general loitering/clothes washing/cooking (important things when I run out of work out clothes and healthy food.  I end up at TacoC in a 1998 Holland Middle School perfect attendance t-shirt) 
  • Old school fitness connection spin class (more cardio, less cyclist pretentiousness)
Ok, back to paying the bills

This the the bike tube that blew up (ie. kinda exploded) before i went riding today...well not actually. this is a tube that has been riding around in my floorboard from a flat a while back...who knew you could pull the whole stem off when inflating tires...ah well. Back tire flat changing practice. 5-ish miles done in 25 minutes before the sun started to fade.
