no, thats not the winning lottery ticket on LOST. i quit that show. because honestly i was lost. and not dedicated to my tv every wed nite. and i'm not always good at paying attention and getting those little references from 3 shows ago and the made up airline site.. oh well. a few hours of my life probably better spent. now the batchelor.. THAT my friends is good tv. ha! nothing like a group of girls all huddled around the boob tube talking trash. you can easily count on multiple train wrecks, play drinking games with words like "amazing" "journey" and "love", and you can wonder how your boss would react if you told him/her you were leaving your job because the man/woman of your dreams is being flown in from kansas and you have to go weed her out from 25 other crazy b*tches... so i digress. (btw recaps and fantastic commentary of this show can be found here - http://www.ihategreenbeans.com/ ok so yes i have no clue how to do that link a site thing.. shut up.

training is all about numbers. time in the saddle. beats per minute. foot strikes to the ground. calories in that cupcake. readings on the stopwatch. lets STOP there for a minute. lately my little pink ironman watch has been very good to me. showing me numbers that perhaps i have not seen in that particular order...for a while.

in fact, i dont think anything, not even the end of the set, has caused me to grin in the pool. unless i've just come off the waterslide and am in hawaii.. perhaps yes, then there will be a big one! but again, the digression.. so what is already a long way around to the point, my best ever 100 pr time came at the end of a set last night. OK wait. let me clarify. i have swam 2 seconds faster, BUT it was on a super long rest interval in a short workout. so this particular PR was off little rest and at the end of a long set. SO yes I do have multiple category PRs. maybe even a PR for each suit i have or flavor of nuun i was drinking. something wrong with that??
ha.

anyway. last night was birthday 400s at the track. woo woo. and tonight a great ride followed by our last and possibly most important victorious secret strategy session. i think we are all getting pretty excited about this race. me? i'm already having doughman dreams. yes.

keep chugging along. though you need to get over that whole batchelor thing. its pretty lame and talk about a time sucker. tell me you at least DVR it and fast forward.
