And this time I am not talking about the open road with bugs that fly in my mouth! Look at this picture of Kits Pool! 137m of uninterrupted lap swimming – opening May 22 if any of you feel like joining me. I can stop in on my walk home from work, have a good swim and then saunter back to the flat. I tell you, life as a city-kitty is pretty darn lovely. If you look at the dock in the distance (picture attached, not shown) those boats are actually on the dock and not in the water.
My rides this past weekend – well, the weather says it all. Two rides on Saturday: one in the morning and one in the afternoon and both of them involved hill work (mmmm – I won’t mention the coffee and donuts with the girls after the morning session). But between the hill work is a session with my trainer Jaye – she has no compassion. Her attitude is basically “talk to the hand ‘cuz the ear’s not listening”. HAH! Except now she’s started to train for triathlon and I just keep saying to her “Let me introduce you to my trainer Jaye”.
Found out after much ongoing pain and then severe muscle cramping on Sunday that my bike has not been fitted properly for me. Imagine! My 120K ride on Sunday got cut to 80 because of leg cramps and I only managed to do 66 on Monday. Ah well, there is always next week. Did a team ride on Sunday and it was really fun. Because it was mother’s day we all met up for a break at the park in Steveston and the dads were there with the kids. There were a lot of us riding on Sunday and it was easy to spot the PACK OF PINK anywhere along the road. Monday was just me and the sunshine.
iPod tunes update: Lots of suggetions coming in – sorry but this has been a really busy week and just haven’t had time to listen to them all yet. One of my fabulous judges gave me a memory stick of tunes and it had BELINDA CARLISLE songs! YAY! I really, really do sound like her when no one is listening.
Cool picture that someone sent me – carved on a watermelon (not actually a picture of me! I can only wish I even looked that fast)
The power of pink: check out the socks! The new “must have” pair to own and many of us wear them on riding days.
