Doin' it!

Y'all, today was the Best workout I've had since I started training. My friend Shar (yes, we call her that. Just go with it) and I did my very first "brick workout." A brick workout is where you bike and then run; ideally a long bike ride and a run of any sorts. We took on the hills of Lebanon today and Ohh my!! First, we rode our bikes about 8 miles, give or take. Which isn't a whole lot of mileage, but we tackled some mad crazy hills. And I STILL cannot get the hang of changing gears! I'm working on it. Better than I used to be at least.

Shar is what I like to call... a sand bagger. I hopes she's reading this. Shar preps me for today's workout by saying "now don't laugh at me, I'm really slow." Y'all, I couldn't keep up with her on a bike going Downhill. True story. Sand Bagger.

Anyhow, after we got done biking those mad crazy hills, we ran them. Four miles on them y'all! That was the first time I've ran over 3.2 miles since November. And we rocked it.

All props to Sand Bagger Shar for today's workout. It was her idea and motivation. I showed up ready for a measly 3 mile run. She's awesome.

I did almost wreck today while trying to talk to a good look'n fella in a good look'n truck. Woops. I did almost get hit by a car while jogging my bike across the road chasing Shar. Told you I was a bad bike rider. Here's more proof. Pedal marks all over my legs. These are becoming a permanent fixture.

Toodles! Life is good y'all. Praises to the King.
