Surf stud

B went surfing today like every day and got lucky to have his picture taken by a professional photographer.

Since I'm always yapping about my athletic prouesse or what I think are prouesses here are some pictures. I am so proud of him.

On another note I posted a question on my gotribal (the women triathletes group I just joined) forum asking whether or not I should participate to the Spring Sprint triathlon in early May or postpone to another one taking place end of June. The answer was an overwhelming do it now. Now I have no other way out than doing the one in May. I want to make sure though that my training doesn't soak up my time with my family.

Dear god I will never dare posting should I do an Ironman?

One of the members answered do both, which I would admit I thought about, and she said that she did two ironmen back to back and 3 other ironmen the following month. Then she added that she wasn't an athlete. Lady news break someone who can finish an ironman is an athlete ;)

Today I ran 3.1 miles outside. First time I was able to not walk but it was still very hot. Next week I will start moving some of my workouts early morning to avoid the heat get things out of the way.

Week end

As usual we had a frantic week end...
Friday evening cheese fondue was on the menue so lots of white wine and late night. The kids for some reason woke up earlier than usual so the crazy idea of running by myself pushing the stroller turned it a nice cup of coffee and a trip to the zoo followed by brunch at our favorite place BeachGrass cafe in Solana beach.
Later I actually motivated myself to go for a bike ride with my neighbor which was nice a relaxing then park and movie galore with the kids. James and the Giant peach and Meet the Robinsons a good distraction from little Einsteins.
Sunday morning was a traumatizing experience both for Maia and us, she had a first swimming lesson and although she loves the water wasn't too happy with being left alone with the teacher. She screamed the first 15 minutes until a very nice second teacher soothed her the next 15 minutes. Miles on the other hand had a blast.
After brunch, grocerie shopping tiddying up the house we went on our run. I had 7 miles planned and felt like going to bed. But huffed and puffed Bryan pushing the stroller and me pushing my butt and we had a really nice 7.9 miles which would have been 8 if Maia didn't lose her flip flop. But hey this seals my weekly record at 18.1 miles!!!!
Now I have to tackle my laundry pile :( but I think I am going to plop my butt on the couch for a little bit. The first time of the day!
