Some things I noticed this weekend

  1. I usually have good workouts after I eat badly the night before. For instance: Friday night I had 5 pieces of pizza, some beer, cookies and candy. Saturday morning I had the best swim I’ve ever had (swam for an hour straight - at least 2 miles). That may not sound like much but I’ve NEVER swam for more than 1.2 miles. Never swam for more than 40 min. straight.

  2. Barb Lindquist is going to have her hands full at the Olympics. I thought her and Taormina would dominate (as they’ve done most of the year) but… maybe not.

  3. Has anyone watched the celebrity golf tournament? I think American Century is putting it on? I’ve seen a couple of the celebrities wearing yellow LIVESTRONG wristbands. Always nice to see.

  4. Nothing can stop me from training except maybe playstation 2.

well… if you can’t train because of the torn achille… get a playstation!

seriously though sorry about the bad luck. hope you heal quickly.

you’re doing florida also? you’re an IM veteran aren’t you? this will be my first. can’t wait. waiting a year for a race sucks… i’d like to do it tomorrow.

can’t wait for the olympics… gonna be interesting to see how the womens race turns out. on a side note… how come walton didn’t decide to do the olympics? apparently he could do very well.

you tore your achilles? how did you do that?
