Had a productive day at work, and was able to get out and for for lunch with D which was a nice mid-day treat.
Had a 90min trail run on the books and I thought I would be doing it in the rain, but amazingly it cleared and turned into a beautiful warm evening. I decided to do Darin's "80min" loop through North Glenmore onto the JackRabbit trail and back. I met up with Julie on the Jackrabbit and she gave me the nickle tour of all the trails in that area. It was great as I haven't done much exploring yet in the area and I now have an idea of how to do a longer trail loop through there. The loop I did took me 2hrs. Not exactly the 80min loop Darin described, but I felt really good and enjoyed the run. I got through 2 new albums that I just downloaded- the new Finger 11 and the new Good Charlotte. Both were pretty good- it was nice to have some new music to listen to.
I was surprised and happy to see D's car when I got home- he did his swim and skipped studying to come home and hang with me... lucky me :-)

Tuesday Tri Day
Started the day with a good swim, a 2800m with the main set 2x (5x100 pull, 5x100 desc)200m kick
I was a bit short on time cause I slept in until 7:00, so I skipped the resting parts and finished in just over an hour including 400m w/u and 200m c/d.
I was at work a bit late and didn't get home until 6:30 so I decided to do my bike/run at the gym. I jogged over to MRC with Darin and did an hour spin on the bike and then a 20min run on the treadmill with 2x 5min fast, 5min easy.
I had some funky stomach cramping in the third set and ended up walking out the last 5 mins cause I couldn't get it to ease.
Overall good training day.
Swim 2800m 1hr03
Bike 60mins
Run 30mins
Total training 2.5hrs
Oh yeah in non training related news we bought a condo! Well actually, we bought a green dot on a board that symbolizes the condo that will be built. It is an investment property that we will sell when it is complete (sometime after Sept. 08) This is perfect for a lot of reasons, not the least of which is that it will allow us to be debt free by the end of this year and have a serious chunk to put down on our own home sometime in '09 when we are all hitched up and official :-)
