3 Things Thursday

1. Post Workout Pain - After my WOW (Workout of the Week) on Tuesday, I am still. feeling. it. Ouch! I went to yoga last night with my friend Laura and it felt so good to stretch my muscles out. Some of the moves were a little painful and I had to drop the pose, but overall it was a good feeling. The pain is located in my shoulders, butt and thighs; three places I'm actually grateful that hurt! It means I'm really working them and making some progress! And that's always a good sign. :)

2. Tinfoilman Triathlon - Only a little over 7 weeks until the Tinfoilman Triathlon...my first triathlon! Nerves are definitely setting in. The pool at my condo is extremely small. I am looking into maybe buying a month pass at the local YMCA to get some pool time in. Also, it is still too hot to ride my bike to work so I am only getting rides in when I ride to yoga at 8pm or early weekend mornings. I can't wait for the cooler weather to set in soon! Cooler weather means I can train harder and go on a lot of hikes for cross training. The October 14th race date is perfect weather wise.

 

3. Laura's Birthday at Zinburger - My workout buddy Laura is celebrating her birthday tonight at Zinburger! I love Zinburger. I am so glad she choose this excellent restaurant for her birthday festivities. She's in town from the UK (she's in grad school over there) just for her birthday so it should be fun tonight! I'll let you know about the details (and what delicious food I ate!) later.
