this weekend

Saturday:
Activity: bike/swim
Time: 25 min/50 min
Distance: 3 miles/1500 M

I wanted to bike but knew the park would be packed so I biked to the pool (plus around the neighborhood, the pool is only a block away) and then swam 1500 M and then biked back. This swim went much better than the others. I decided I was going to do 500 M and then keep doing 500M until I couldn't go any longer, or until the pool was closed. I started and once I got to 10 laps, I could keep going so I did 20 more!

Sunday:
Activity: Bike
Time 1 hour
Distance 10 + mies

Evan biked the park with me. We did the "hilly side". If you travel south, you get all the hills. If you go North, you get more down hills. I normaly run north, bike south. Then Evan gave me a bike tour or Wash U's campus. There were some new buildings he didn't know yet, but it was cool. You could tell it's the weekend before finals. We decided that Forest Park is not a good place to bike for fitness but for leisure. I came home and even though we were gone for an hour, we both felt like we didn't get a very good work out. The hills are tough but you are fighting so many other people it's hard to get any momentum going. We found the bike rack we are purchasing and hopefully getting in 6 hours when the bidding ends on Ebay. I love Ebay! In 2 weeks we are going out to the Katy trail, flat and long and (hopefully) less crowded.

Next weekend Crystal will be in town so I will be doing a lot of what we do when we all get togheter, drinking a lot of wine and chatting. So....I am going to have to work harder this week to make up for taking the entire weekend off next week. In other non-related news, Casey's first grooming appointment was a success. He was there 8 hours. I was worried about him and worried about how he would look. He looks much better than we thought. Still like Casey, just with short hair, and he's clean, nails cut, pads trimmed, ears cleaned, the works! He seemed happier today being less hot at the park. I'll put pictures up when Evan returns from golfing and I can find the flash drive to get the pics off of the lap top which is not cooperating for me at at the moment.

It was nice and sunny, a bit hot. I think i got some sun on 1 side of my body. Love uneven tans. I'm off to shoe shop....hard to believe it's that time already. Seems like I just got new shoes!
