Met my bike friends this morning and went for an absolutely beautiful early morning ride out around Hoogle Zoo and back on Wasatch, my legs were a bit jelloy still but I won every hill climb challenge and after getting to the end of our ride one of the guys told me he's glad I was going out of town cause he can't keep up with me, (I think he was joking, but not sure) and then they asked me if I wanted to join their LotoJa team. Humm, interesting thought. 3 weeks out from St George. This story is going to border on the line of a Burt story. When I got back to my office building I went to the showers and then started putting on my clothes that I had brought last Friday and left in the locker, put my shirt on, socks on, and then tried to get my pants on, humm they didn't fit, at all. Have I gotten that fat? Looked down and realized I had accidently packed my wifes pants, and un-fortunately, in this case, she is much smaller than me. So paint the picture, me in a dress shirt, lycra shorts, black dress socks and a pair of Nike Free's, and the only place I could think of that sells pants at 7:00am is Walmart. Yep, if someone had a camera I'm going to end up on the people of Walmart website for sure. How Embarrassing!! On a happier note, last night my kids wanted to race me around the yard, so I took off my shoes and ran barefoot in the grass with my kids. My hip seemed to hold up pretty well, it didn't hurt at all, but it didn't feel exactly normal. I think I have forgotten how to run but I'm sure it will come back. I'm going to continue to be a cyclist for 1 more week and then slowly start running. 25.5 miles in 1:20:45 18.9 mph avg.
