About Me
- TRI TO BE FUNNY
- Austin, Texas, United States
- I'll make you laugh, or break my neck trying. This is usually accomplished with daily bouts of swimming, biking and running. A former "chub-a-holic," I got fit and healthy the good old fashioned way and went from a mid-pack athlete to top age group runner and triathlete. I'm a Writer and USAT Level 1 Certified Triathlon Coach. I guess that makes me part Tina Fey and part Jillian Michaels. Visit my coaching site at www.fomotraining.com

Testing 1..2..3
This is the toy I'm test riding for the next few days. In the infamous words of Stevie Wonder, "Isn't She Lovely?" I picked her up from Jack and Adams today and they spent over 1/2 hour fitting me on this machine--for only a test ride. What a great tri shop! The bike is slightly too big for me, but it will at least give me a good spin and a feel for what this bike is capable of. I didn't get a chance to ride today, but hopefully tomorrow. Plus, the colors couldn't be more spectacular. I'm a huge Ohio State Fan and what better colors than scarlet and gray?
Shawn and I completed a short brick workout this morning.
3/4 mile swim at Barton Springs followed by 3.5 mile run on the trail
For some reason, I was struggling a tad on the swim. My laps got progressively slower...
lap #1 9:26 lap #2 9:44 lap #3 9:47
I was glad we opted not to do the mile...weird...
The rest of the day was great...A few errands followed by an early dinner at South Congress Cafe to celebrate our Anniversary (it's where we met for our first date!), followed by a nap. We even signed up for the Marble Falls Sprint Tri on July 23rd.
Here's to another week!
