gah...what a super break so far...
yesterday i just relaxed for the afternoon...went to whole foods, baked a coffee cake...i forgot to take a picture...but those who saw can vouch for the fact that it was a _very_ pretty bundt cake...and then last night j and i hung out at home and watched a movie...haven't done that in ages...ate miso undon noodles with seared scallops...warming and yummy...went to bed early feeling happy and un-stressed...
today was a trainer ride at the Training center since the weather was looking bad...cold and wet...really one of these days i will get out and ride in the real world but anyway had a great two hour workout on the trainer...coach chrissie led us on a 2 hour spin fest...it was great...usually i'm bored and distracted and ready to get off way before i hit my time but today was not that way...i was focused on my ride...and not distracted by all the studying i needed to get done later like usual...so i could just ride...and deal with how my body was feeling...i had been on for about 30 minutes before she started so after 2 hours i hopped off and did a 5 mile brick off the bike...the run felt AWESOME...
now that i think about it...this was my first brick since doing ironman...and i had none of the noodle leg issues that usually come from running off the bike...felt solid and strong the whole way...back to the training center just as the CdA peeps were getting off their bikes...stretched and chatted had some coffee and treats (thanks maggie and ETG and booher) then home...
i chowed on some of the left overs from last night...then got down to business...cleaning...the house has been on the bottom of my list these days...and was in need of some TLC...with all the construction dust...and cats shedding...yeah...spent about 3.5 hours on that...
picked up the farm share...and chowed an orange as soon as i walked in the door...SO good...we got our first lettuce mix of the season...yeah!...love spring farm share...just we lived in a place where we could get fava beans...maybe i will check the farmers market some time...
the only thing that would be better today was if j was home working on the studio...he's at SXSW interactive...he was on a panel today...and attending conference stuff...hope that he's having fun...the poor guy needs a weekend...where he is not at a conference...sheesh...
but tonight should be fun...Frog's SXSW party is tonight...last year it was a lot of fun...and this year is supposed to be even better...looking forward to it...and an off day tomorrow...nice...
