Hey womens. It has been A Couple of Weeks.
BingTri, congrats on ending the plank homework. Do you feel any stronger?
TDS, sorry to hear your race went badly, but it sounds like it definitely was a fluke. At least you got that out of the way and can focus on the next one.
Scheherazade, sounds like a nice, solid week. It feels good to bank those even if they aren't anything spectacular. And I am probably going to get the same storm you are, which ... I am not looking forward to.
SDCali, happy birthday! Way to try to get it done even after forgetting your shoes. I haven't forgotten shoes yet, knock on wood, but have forgotten socks and/or a sports bra TOO MANY TIMES.
Dr. T, hope you are well.
I didn't make it here last week because the last couple of weeks were a lot. I had a big work event that, while it was extremely stressful planning it, the actual event went off without a hitch. I am also closing this chapter of my professional life (more details later) but the new chapter, shall we say, is taking its sweet time getting me the details, and as a result I am getting nervous and also losing a bit of my faith in it. And then, I got sick as a dog later in the week with a fever, super congested, itchy and sneezy, the works. I was mad because not only did we have beautiful weather on the days I was stuck inside, but I had to cancel a lot of plans, including hanging out with my mom and meeting our friends' new baby, who I probably won't get to meet now before they leave for an extended vacation. :....( Super bummer. I did feel well enough to grocery shop yesterday (although I needed a nap afterward) and am back at work today so that is a bit of good news.
My indoor triathlon two Sundays ago was a ton of fun. I did better than my test swim earlier that week, I supposedly led my bike wave although my distance was "adjusted" later from km to miles, and I felt good on the run, so that was about the best possible outcome. They didn't do awards but we got to hang out with an old friend, have a good time, and get back home early enough that the whole day wasn't shot. I wish more gyms did these -- I forgot how much fun they are.
I hope all of you have a good week with only beneficial germs and no snowstorms wreaking havoc.
