I made up my mind.
Feb. 13th, 2008 08:24 pmI'm inspired by
swampgirl who turned me onto the idea of a Lazyman Triathalon -- where you complete the Ironman Triathlon, except over 6 weeks. However, since I'm not a swimmer by any means, I'm performing the water portion via row machine. So my goals are: 13 miles of rowing, 26.2 miles of run/walk, 112 miles of biking. I started today and realized immediately that I might have to show up more than 3 times a week if I'm going to make this happen. But I think even if I go 4 times a week, I can make it happen. Its hard for me to go on days and not do any weights, because that's my favorite part. Its like having sex and stopping before an orgasm. I mean, sure, its not necessarily the end all, be all, but to not even try? When there's a chance?? C'mon. Ok, I know, its weird, I don't know why I'm really into weights and various complicated strength exercises, but I am. I even do strange ab exercises now.
Also, did anyone else watch the made-for-tv movie about the suburban mom who trains and complete the Ironman Triathalon? I can't remember why. Maybe to get over a divorce? But the woman was played by Penny Marshall. Wait, here is the original New York Times review!

If Laverne can do it, so can I.
I'm listening to "The Drive" at work, which for non-Chicago radio listeners, its like 'classic rock lite', and they're doing some countdown of their catalog and today its H and I was somewhat amused and shocked to here both Whitesnake's Here I Go Again and Damn Yankee's High Enough.
Last night I had a dream that featured my office-mate. No thank you, subconscious.
