These people are NUTS! I thought Ironman required psychoanalysis…. We have nothing on these folks! Check it out… www.ultramanlive.com.
(We swam and ran a sliver of their route today…..)

Geez…. our timer must be on the fritz. We COOKED this morning on the same route as last time. There is NO WAY we ran the same time. Oh well. At least we’re logging the miles and we’re sticking to the ‘intermediate’ plan for the Vancouver First Half. Week 1. Done.

Maybe it’s the time change? Maybe it’s my body decompressing? Maybe it’s all the salt water snorkeling? I don’t know for sure why it happens, but when I come to Hawaii, I find myself sleepy all day. I could very easily have a nap every afternoon on the beach. I am in bed well before 9pm. And I love getting up early to drink my morning Kona coffee and breath in the fresh air. Not that I’m complaining about it…. It simply fascinates me…
(It could be all those sleep inducing macadamia nuts?? )
Maybe, some things are better kept mysteries….

Even though our run today was hard - and I bet a great calorie burner - I’m sure I ate the GNP of a small country at the Sirian’s Apple Cup party. Brownie bites, chips & salsa, bar-b-que, cookies, apple salad, and many more morsels I didn’t even reach. Glad the Cougs won but … jeepers. Football is tough on the thighs!

Dreadmill sprint interval workout. Hard, fast, up to 7.5% grade… and in 30 second increments. 8mph to 10.5 mph. I love this workout because the ‘high’ lasts for ages. Yeahhhhhhhh baby.

We rarely argue…… except for one thing. Sliding door open? Sliding door closed. I’m freezing. He’s burning up.
How do we meet in the middle? Arrrgh…..(Or, should I say, Brrrrrr!!!!)

Some days, even a little exercise is better than none. Today is one of those days. A short and slow slog on the dreadmill… with some stretching. Now off to a big day!

After doing some ‘new math’, I realize that I am spending wayyyyyyy too much moolah on coffee in the mornings. So, these last few days I have been using the Bodum press to froth my own milk. It works like a charm!! I am using Kona beans or Ladro beans so the coffee quality is still up there…….but I am pleasantly surprised by how YUMMY the home froth is!!! Creamy, light and delicious!
I think I’ll head to Target today to find a real frothing press (that goes to the bottom of the beaker)……… For those of you in my ‘hood, feel free to drive on by for a cuppa yourself!
