For the time being, life has quieted. Jeff and I have been enjoying a routine, for a bit, getting consistent about working out and spending time with the Champ.
Last Friday morning, Jeff and I did our first brick work out of 2008. (A brick work out is an endurance work out of more than one activity.) We went to Memorial park, cycled for 30 min then ran for an hour. The short ride was my doing as my and my bike's saddle are not yet in sync with each other. So when the pain got intense I bargained Jeff into a shorter ride and a longer run. Little did I know that the run would develop into a challenge and we finished 6 miles in just under a 9 min/mile pace. I never time myself, so I was proud that I could maintain that pace for so long. Thanks to Ana for watching Champ and allowing us some time together.
Sunday, we finished the weekend in the best way possible, in the pool. Champ happily floated in his new ring, while the rest of us enjoyed a little sun and alcohol. Champ continues to love the water.

Ahh...the bike/run brick. I've avoided that one so far, but I know the day is coming...
It is a great workout, but there is a reason for the notion brick = bike, run, "ick"
