IT ‘07: Week #1- and we’re off!
by GoBevGo @ Beverly's Adventures in Ironland 2.0
This is the first official week of Ironteam 2007.
Kick-Off!
Kick-off was Sunday at Covington School in Los Altos. I met my mentor group in person for the first time. It was nice to put actual faces with everyone after meeting them all by phone the previous week. I have a great group!! Very friendly! I think we're going to have a lot of fun together.
1st SB Spin
Tuesday night was our first spin at Sports Basement along with the always welcome 20% off friends & family discount night. I had to check on one of my evening programs at work, so missed the spin, but I made it in time to spend, spend, spend on tri gear. No, you never have enough triathlon gear, ever! I looked longingly at the snowboard apparel but that will have to wait a couple more months. My favorite purchase of the night were rain/cold weather booties for biking. I'm hoping for a Popsicle-Toes Free winter!!!
1st Track Practice
Last night was our first track practice at De Anza College: run drills & strength training. It felt good to be running again. It was dark very early, another reminder that winter and cold training days will soon be upon us. We had a huge group running around the track last night. It's wonderful to see just how large our team is this season. Wow!
Today I did a lunchtime ride with my friend tomj. It was really hot out there! We road around Saratoga and up past the Mtn Winery and were out for about an hour. It's time to get back into my training routine. The time off has been great but now I need to get serious. I haven't been drinking enough water throughout the day or eating breakfast. It's good to have these reminders about what I need to do!
So it was a nice week of "firsts" and "feels-good-to-be-backs". This weekend we have IronUniversity #2 on Sat and our first swim/run brick on Sunday. Bring it, Babee!!!
