...It's my birthday too, yeah...

Celebrated my 33rd birthday yesterday with a nice 2+ hour ride with K (she's training for IM WI this year) where it seemed like every significant uphill stretch was into the teeth of a 15-20 mph east wind. The downhill stretches were almost all with that as a tailwind, so that part was fun, at least.

Last week, I managed to overdo a set of swim workouts, with 45 push ups, followed immediately by a mile straight (in the evening) and turned around the next morning to do another 1200m (mix of swim, kick, pull stuff). Gotta say that 100m straight kicking in a 50m pool is really really boring. To combat that boredom, I went for it and bought the H2O Audio Interval 3G and an iPod Shuffle. We'll see if that is all it's cracked up to be.


I'm officially in for all the races on my calendar now (there was a hold up in processing due to the discounts offered to the UW-Madison triathlon club), so I suppose I should figure out what I'm in for with the Chisago Lakes 1/2 Iron. Anyone know anything about the course or the lake?
