You can run....but you can't hide
I'll just leave it at that.
You can't expect to do something horrific and expect to get away with it.
Thank you law enforcement, Fire/Rescue, Feds, and all the vigilant bystanders/witnesses/tipsters.
Last night was a 3:00 ride. I did 2:47 mintues because I was watching the Hobbit and that's how long the movie was. I didn't get as much mileage as I wanted (46 miles). It was a lot slower than I wanted. My legs just didn't want to move faster, my body wanted some rest.
After I got off the bike, I wanted to just shower, shave, and go to bed.....well....all hell was breaking loose in Boston so I quick showered/shaved and air dyed on the couch watching the updates on the hunt for the suspects.
I'm tired as all hell today....I have a "youth Summit" that my leadership class is hosting for the city. I have a walkie-talkie and I'm supposed to be coordinating the volunteers. Lets hope the volunteers can coordinate themsleves cuz I'm not looking forward to this.
This weekend.......
Sat - 13 mile run
Sun - 6 hour ride (will split up between trainer and road)

I'm boring...or blah....or both
I rode 2:35 last night....so about 42 miles. I got bored on the bike. I'm done with Firefly and didn't know what to start next so I just quit. I really want to get out on the road, but I have no time during the week. The past few weekends have either had family in town (and a small hangover) or the weather has been crappy.
5 mile run tonight and a 2100m swim (or about 37 minutes). It's hard to keep count on the longer distances so I just swim for time. I try to keep track, I really do....but my ADD kicks in and I end up singing songs, thinking about whatever.....
Enjoy a picture of my resemblance to Johnny "Football" Manziel.

Tailgating, Beer, Drunks, Running, Biking
Not necessarly in that order....
On Saturday morning, I was up and at'em at 5:30. I did 5.5 mile run (was supposed to do between 6 and 8) but wasn't feeling it. I've gotten that way lately and it's shown on the training volume. Yesterday was 60 mile ride but managed to do 25 because I didn't start until around 9pm and, frankly didn't want to do it at all. Since this is a new week, I'll hit it strong tonight with a 2000m swim.
Before I get into Saturdays festivities.....my totals for the month are:
Bike - 188.5 miles
Run - 16.82 miles
Swim - 9300m
So....Saturday.
We loaded up everything for the festivities and got to our area aroun 9:15am. As the parade didn't start until 11am, we had plenty of time to hang, chill, eat, start drinking, and have fun. There were an esitamed 110k people out for the parade and with temps in the mid-70's it was damn near perfect.
We had some friends meet us out there too.....and they brought A LOT of champaign. I figure that I had close to a whole bottle based on how I was feeling by the end of the parade. All in all we had a blast.
Post Parade.....yup....
Floats
Floats and throwing beads
Seriously....already doing 'duck face'???
Cutiest family ever
So...my SIL and I were in a grocery store on Friday night and we walked passed a disply of Shiner beer. Attached to this display was an awesome tin sign that would look perfect in my office. So....we find a manager and he's like "I can't give it to you but maybe the manager can. He's not here so you'll have to come back tomorrow". I turn my charm on and was like "c'mon make an executive decision" and "no one will know". He was stedfast....can't do it.
So....on Saturday, after the parade, I return to this grocery store. I walk in, walk to the display, take the sign, walk out and put it in my car. It was straight up Oceans 11 style operations.
