Little Miss Runner Pants

its been a busy, busy week here in my world... so i thought i'd recap it a bit with my own version of the good, the bad and the ugly...

welcome to the pants report.
a quick summary of where these pants have been and what they've been doing.
(and a way for me to keep track of all this activity each week.. so if you find this boring, i apologize. for a good fun read, check out my links on the right!)

first off... i'm exhausted. week 2 of official triathlon training and i have a new found respect for all you multi-sporters out there. how you find the time to do it all amazes me.

and i'm single, without a husband/kids/family to take care of. so... y'all are awesome. kudos to you.

that being said, this week worked out something like this:

(the boring stuff...)

monday
30 Pull-ups
30 Box Jumps, 20 inches
30 DB swings, (55lbs/35lbs)
30 Push-ups
30 Barbell Hang Power cleans, (65 lbs/35lbs)
30 Burpees
30 Wall-ball shots (20lbs/12lbs)
30 Sit-ups

that. sucked.

and ouch.

tuesdasy:
three 250m loops.. swim -- open water.
then what i thought would be a few loops around the park..biking -- only to realize the group i was with was doing "a short 20 miler" outside of the park, i can't hang, and my bike/chain/rear derailleur hates me.
grrrr.

wednesday:
lollygagging in the gym and an LLS Volunteer Awards Ceremony... thing.
go TNT!

thurdsay:
two loops around the park.. biking.
found out my bike is mal-adjusted for me, its not my fault i suck, i need to be fitted. and my rear derailleur still hates me.
then... sand volleyball. i gots skillzzz.

as if there were ever any doubt!! heh.

(yeah no. mexican girls have no mad ups. its sad.)

however there were cute boys, and that makes everything better.

friday:
21 Dumbbell Thrusters
21 D-ball Slams
21 Pull-ups
15 Dumbbell Thrusters
15 D-ball Slams
15 Pull-ups
9 Dumbbell Thrusters
9 D-ball Slams
9 Pull-ups

coach rut: "we've being doing these for a while now, you should be good at them"
me: @#$^%#@!%$&%#%#@!%$#@^%$&$

i was less than pleased.

and......

the fun:
hee hee. i met another boy. he has a dog. so therefore he becomes Guy With Dog. went out saturday afternoon, and...
uhh..
yeah i pretty much have a crush on him.
second date is a go! weeee!

the dumb:
my rear derailler thing... er i think thats what it is... is totally screwed. it shifts without me telling it to. it doesn't shift when i say so. it likes to shift up when i ask it to shift down... shift down when i need to shift up.

it hates me. it hates me. and although it does add a little excitement to my ride, i'd rather not have it laced in complete and total fear that the bike is going to unhinge and i'm going to go flying so..
i'm not loving it.

my bike is an arse. and he needs a name.

and finally
the dull....
the omg get me outta here, i didn't know it was possible to have this little chemistry with a person, i can't believe i waited for the extra two days, sad sad second date with Philo boy.

it was bad. it was boring. it was a realization that whatever fun i had on the first date was a direct effect of the alcohol, and.. its over.

there was a movie. there was a make and hang-up alert phone call to a friend (a planned escape route if you will... you ladies know what i'm talkin' about!!!).. and a quick hug buh-bye.

and other than a few loads of laundry, today's ride and run brick and a bite to eat with friends.. that pretty much wraps up my week. i know it doesn't sound like much to you marathoning/ironman-ing types out there, but i'm exhausted.

and i'm to bed.

g'night!
