Saturday

On Saturday I was up at 6:30.  I vacuumed the bedroom, dusted the furniture and started in on laundry.  Then I packaged up my empty beverage containers and put them in the car.  After gathering my swim gear it was time to go.  First a stop in at the bottle depot to drop off the empties and get my $17.55 refund.  Then on to the pool for an 1800 m pull/paddle workout.  Out of the pool, shower, change and grab a quick lunch at Good Earth.  From there on to Costco.  Yes, I braved Costco on a Saturday afternoon.  After buying more salmon, asparagus, zucchini and red peppers than one girl would know what to do with it was time to head home.  In order to make room for the Costco groceries I had to clean out the fridge, then run off to the gas station to exchange my propane cylinder for the BBQ.  All before 5 pm.

Gee, with all this time to get stuff done do you think I might be tapering?

Too funny! Yes, it's amazing what you can accomplish with a little step back in training. Hope you are feeling rested!

How many empties does it take for $17.55?

Wow Leana, your Saturday was my Monday, lol. Just catching up on some blogs after being out with a bad cold. Luckily its dying the death it deserves and I will be able to race GWN.

Congrats on Chinook, better to sort out the bugs then and not at GWN. And I know what the I am late for the race panic is like...I swear I saw a sign that said speed limits were optional.

Nasty wetsuit bite...I got one June 6th and it is just healed over now. Going use body glide this time and hopefully not have a repeat.

Are you going to the Carb loading dinner for GWN..maybe I will see you there. If not maybe on raceday! Enjoy the taper!
