One hour, suckers!
Woo! I made it to an hour on Sunday. I met Kim in the Presidio at 6:30 a.m. so we could run before the Presidio 10 Miler race, that began at 8. We plodded out Marina Green, over to Aquatic … Continue reading
New Tires, Part Deux
Sat 7/8 – Woke up early (seriously, do I need to say that? Probably not), still feeling a little sore and congested, but not all that bad. Due to meet Heather at 8 to put new tires on her bike, … Continue reading

Woke up at 8 a.m. (supposed to meet Julie at 8:30). Hungover for the first time since…oh, September, I think. Whoa. Walked to Sac St. to retrieve my car, and made it to Aquatic Park just 10 minutes late. Not … Continue reading
I fell asleep at 8 last night, still in my clothes. Woke up at 2 or 3 a.m. for more water and finally brushed my teeth and changed! I went to lift at lunch, since I skipped it yesterday. I … Continue reading
Woke up at 8 to get down to Aquatic Park at 9. I met Burnie, Jeff, and Andrea to swim a mile. We were on the “extended entry” plan, so we didn’t actually start swimming until 9:45. It was so … Continue reading
