GAME FACE!

So today I had my first cardio physiology test..............


THen I went and picked up my race packet for tomorrows half marathon!!!!!!!! How exciting!! My bib number is 1625...sounds lucky right? I am about to find out what it's like to train for a half marathon in 5 weeks...call me stupid...(It's ok..I call myself that sometimes). I also bought some new clothes...cute purple brooks shirt and brooks pants at the race expo!

Sorry I've been so MIA..life has been crazy. 12 hour days..studying all night. Training. Rinse, Repeat. But I couldn't be happier. I'm so glad I started running and training and I'm even more excited to start swimming & cycling! Which brings me to my next point...I'm just going to flash a picture. Isn't she beautifullllll??? Detailed explanation to come!! All I can say is that no one has ever reached out to me in this way and it inspires me sooooooo much to get out there and start training and kickin some cycling butt!


Think of me tomorrow..first timer! You all have inspired me so much! Your quotes are in my head constantly. Any last advice would be grrreeatt!! :)
God Bless!

Dang, going all out with the aero bars right off the bat, huh? Pretty hardcore!

Advice for tomorrow: don't wear the stuff you just bought! Only use tried and true gear during the race!

Arn't expos so fun? Except I spend too much money. About $80 today. ha!

Good luck this weekend. YOu'll do fine.

Here's to being UNDERTRAINED! Supposedly undertrained is better than over trained. So we'll see :)

Can't wait for the full report - don't forget to take pics!

Don't go out to fast, keep a steady pace and try to run the second half faster than the first.

Love the new wheels, Roo's sure are schweet!

Oh yeah and what Doug said also!

Nice bike. Be careful with those aero bars....they can take a lot of getting used to.

Hey!! That is the tri-bike that I bought!! I LUVED it... but, after over a month of struggling with derailure issues, the bike shop finally figured out that it had been damaged when they put it together - they cracked the frame. They no longer had my size, so QR actually gave me an upgrade to the LUCERO for only $150 extra. Couldn't beat that offer.

You will LOVE that bike! The flames rock...
