Swimmers ear?????

I can't believe it, today I was diagnosed with swimmers ear. I thought that this only happened to kids! The good news for the rest of us who read this blog is that I have a recipe to keep the bacteria and fungus (gross!) away. 2 parts water 1 part white vinegar, put 3-4 drops in your ears after swimming. Apparently this will keep you r ears acidic enough that they won't grow anything, who knew!

My new bike

Well I bought my bike and I am very excited! I look forward to "Tweaking" things and getting it to be more and more comfortable. First order of business will be to get a new seat, I will take the donkey lama's advice and ride with my current seat for two months but I am pretty sure that I will be getting a new one :)

I am going to be a better blogger from here on out. Catch you on the flip side!

Say it ain't so.....

Since the site seems to need a little momentum, I thought I would contribute. There seems to be quite a bit of truth to the adages "Time flies when you are having fun!" and "The years go quicker the older you get!" I'm not certain which culprit to hold accountable in this case, but I know one thing; the official countdown to Ironman Canada is 4 DAYS 18 HR 15 MIN 18 SEC. Did time fly? Certainly. Did we have fun getting here? You bet!! (REMINDER: "Fun" is a user-defined term.)

Now, before all you blog reading/tri training fanatics start snickering at my impending bout with pain, I remind you your day is coming.....in exactly 305 DAYS 18HR 14 MIN 13 SEC!!!! Cheers!!

I did it!

I started training yesterday and it felt great! I biked for 20 mins in Z2, ran for 10 in Z2 and learned all the weight machines and did the weight workout. I am going to bike tonight, swim and run tomorrow and maybe weights again on Friday. Anyway-Happy Training!

Heart Rate training
