One month until our first adventure race of the season!!
One month until a special GGB turns the big 2-7!!!!
One month until we see Frank, Bethann and all our racing "friends" again!!
One month until we lay our eyes upon the oh so great and always coveted pink leader jerseys, which secured our committment to the series!!
We only have one month until we have to mountain bike up hills and over rocks, run through the brush in our high socks, and navigate our way into the forest then back out!!! Very exciting, but also a little scary.... I wonder what the other all female teams will look like? Will they be "in it to win it" or will they be competing just for fun? Are the pink jerseys just so Frank has an easier way of spotting the end of the pack? half jk half jk This is a new GGB this year and we have a lot to prove!
So...we'd better amp up our training!
Kristen will be in NYC this weekend running a half marathon, then next week we have cross training scheduled and a long bike ride! We rocked a 2 miler and 5 miler race last weekend which really boosted our confidence levels!! It's also time to get the bikes out of storage, give them some love and re-build our friendship with them. At the end of last season, we agreed it was best if we didn't see each other for awhile...
Lastly, I would like to propose a new tradition in our blogging posts. At the end of each blog, I want to include something the GGB's call a "confession". It's something we did or want to do, that we're not so proud of. A lot of the time the confession involves food or working out. It's usually a couple lines that we have written in an email to each other, and recently Kristen discovered there has been quite a few over the last 3 years.
K - 2008 - Confession...I had a treat from the vending!!, and it was ok...it wasn't even great! I wanted a reeses fast break and instead I got a Reeses whipped bar because it said it had 40% less fat...at least that was a good thing... I guess...
Feel free to include your own in the comments section :)
