Well, I'm lame

I suck. At blogging. Lately. Empty promises about updating more frequently, great pictures that haven't been uploaded, etc. etc. etc. Well, I still don't have the pictures uploaded. I went to Best Buy to buy the magical device to do this, since I'd lost mine, but bought one that is compatible with my old camera...and basically every other camera as well...except mine. Sweetness.

I will try to post more, since the race is coming up. A little update on the three individuals partaking in this journey.

Me: Still quite attractive, need to stay away from the champagne cake, turning 30 was fantastic, and the Hawkeyes are 9-0. Wait, we're talking about triathlon's here. Training is going ok. Not bad, not great. A couple of weeks ago, I was losing so much motivation. I'm one of those people that doesn't mind training, at least shorter/harder workouts, but I need to race. Let me repeat...I need to race. I haven't raced since September and was getting passive with training. That and football season, etc. was making me lose motivation. Oh yeah, I also work a lot. Anyways, a couple weeks ago, I was out on what was supposed to be a 15 mile run. I hadn't gone longer than 13 miles, which scares the hell out of me right now. A solid combination of darkness, leaves and holes in sidewalks provided a nice black/blue swollen ankle. Luckily, I only missed a week of workouts. I did have a workout with TJ Tollakson and Brad Bach prior to this where we rode 90 miles and some hills. Worst ride ever. Don't ride with a Pro triathlate and a very solid roadie hung over from your birthday the night before. Doesn't end well. I'm in the middle of a 17 hour workout week and I've got a 100 mile ride/50 min. brick run and an 18 mile run planned for the weekend. The ankle is coming along. Let's roll.

Hammerhead: Hammerhead has his own blog now since mine hasn't been updated forever. It actually prompted me to update. I'll try to post a link http://bojitriteam-stonecold.blogspot.com/2009/11/next-step.html

He's been working on his running, has always been a solid biker and his swim was coming along. Not sure how much pool time he's been getting, but we're gonna finish. He's also still quite good looking as well, which is a requirement for our team.

Nacho Libre: Nacho just got cleared by the doctor. He did 450 yards in the pool and it wasn't pleasant. I hope he tries to give it a go, and it would be amazing if he did. For those that don't know, he tried playing chicken with Hammerhead on their bikes and lost. Ok, that's a lie. Bike accident that fratured clavicle and nose. He's still good looking though.

Anyways, I promise to start blogging more and getting the right thing for my camera. Then there will be awesome pictures, possibly the greatest in all the land.
