Then I get serious about a coach. I'll probably want to hire somebody for 8 to 11 weeks [I have an alley-smoker in mind], and then review from there. I really want to do intervals over this period of time.
My race shirt design is coming along - I'm buying a white poly-cotton blend long-sleeve shirt today. Then using a color bubble-jet printer, I'll print on a couple of sheets of t-shirt transfer paper, and then iron-on the mirrored transfer onto my new shirt.
Finally, I was tagged a couple of days ago by Rio [who by the way has a really inspirational video on her page today] to splurt out 10 random things about myself and then find three other [victims] bloggers to do the same.
- I prefer soft serve ice cream
- I love my wife and family
- I'm a practicing (not perfect yet) Roman Catholic
- I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone
- That was a high-stick by Gretzky on Gilmour
- I often worry about where the next dollar is going to come from
- I spend too much time by a computer
- I have good neighbors and many good friends
- I am blessed
- I am grateful
And I pick:
Adrienne @ Life of a Non Race Runner
Quinton J @ Q on the Move...
Best wishes for the upcoming race!! :-)

ReplyDeleteAndrew...That pic is SO awesome. I was looking for a way to get out to Guelph to put this cheerleader outfit to work...but being one day before my race...I can't swing it. That said...I know we'll cross running paths soon. Enjoy this week of training and tapering before your race.
