- Branson is just around the corner it seems. Time to start amping things up, but it is hard to do in this heat.
- I love the new ride. My bike is awesome. All this time I thought it was a she, but really, he is a he. I am kicking around a few names for him, and I am leaning to naming him HBK, for the Heartbreak Kid.
- 4th of July celebrations seem to all happen on the 2nd or 3rd of July nowadays.
- Finding Bigfoot and Whale Wars are my can't miss shows.
- On my iPod, I put 4 cheesy tunes on my iPod the other day. (So cheesy, that I will not mention them) Whenever these songs come on, I have to amp up my pace for these songs (I stay on shuffle mode) and they usually come on at the worst time.
- My road race series starts Sunday. I am using this series to help me prepare for the run at Branson and also to help me train for the Memphis marathon in December.
- I am now addicted to Words with Friends, but do not ask me to play because I use the internet to help me.
- I have also been jonseing for chocolate milk lately.
- True Blood has gotten really weird this season.
- I bought a power balance band a few weeks ago at a flea market and I have not fallen over once since.
- I have found out that lately, a tennis ball is my best friend.
Well, that's about it for the ramblings. I have been hitting the training harder because I feel behind after not having a bike for over a month. I have been concentrating more on the bike and run portion of my training. I have a 5k this Sunday and then next weekend I have a sprint triathlon, so July will be fun. I will take these races seriously, but my main focus is Branson,and all these races are to help me with Branson. I will be ready, and thankfully I know my wife is supporting me bigtime, I know she wants me to finish Branson this time as much as I do. She is signed up to do a triathlon geared for beginners this year around Labor Day, so it will be great to help her train and get ready, so that will be very exciting to support her.
