SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY

Ok, so not blood shed but tears were (see Kerri, I told you that you weren't the only one who cried because they didn't make it). My day started wrong. I went to meet the lovely Race Day Rush/Phat chicks' crew and just could not find them.

The sun was shining and until getting lost, I was very happy. So, once I figured out what I had done wrong and found my way, I was told by the parking attendant that I had missed my group by 10 mins. What to do??? Run like hell! That's what I did. So going along the trail, I saw a lady (that I did not know) wearing a Phat Chicks shirt - I just so happened to be wearing my too so she knew right away I was out looking for the crew. She said you are right behind them, they are only 3 mins up the path. WOW...could I really run fast enought to catch up to them? I kept on running and then there it was...a Y in the path. What to do..go right????..go left????. It was a 50/50 chance and as luck would have it, I must have gone the wrong way and never found them. The good news was I was out running which I love to do...so that it what I focused on.

After my run, the rest of the group followed behind after about 5-10 mins so I know I wasn't too far from them (which was another down point...I almost found them). We all chatted it up for about an hour. Susie-Q from Phat Chicks gave us some kick-ass homework and that was pretty much the end of the day.

BUT - not totally the end of the day. I decided to bring my road bike and go for a tour around the area (here's where the blood comes in..figuretively of course). I wasn't out 20 mins and I fell off of my bike..just couldn't get unclipped fast enough even though my right foot was nearing the ground, my body just didn't want to go that way and I feel to the left..lol. So I proceeded to get back on the horse as they say and not 5 mins later, I blew a tire!

The day got the best of me and was trying to tell me something!

So this Thursday it's a mountain bike challenge with the crew and I can't wait....even though Shaner thinks I can make it up the steep hill!

Find the strength Keep the will.
