Funny how this works... for about a week now we thought that our son was due to arrive. But after 36 weeks and 3 days Liz's contractions continue but we are not at the point where we are to deliver him. We don't what to do with outselves...House is clean - check
Nursery is ready - check
Baby clothes need to be washed - check
Car seats installed - check
Stock up on food - check
Sit around and wait - check... not being able to plan anything beyond 4 hours is something we are getting used to. We are starting to think that our little one is toying with us... I have to say then that he is doing a fine job keeping us on the edge.
Well, what else can I say? I've been very lucky to have the chance to go riding here and there the last couple of days. Always a treat to go beyond 20 Miles given the circumstances. In fact, yesterday was the first time this year that I got my black bike out for a spin. Let me tell you that it felt STRANGE riding "La Bestia" for the first time in so long. Of course it did not take very long to get familiar with it again. My legs felt pretty flat this second day in a row that I got to ride. Let's call it a building phase as I am getting my legs ready again for the requirements of triathlon. I have plenty of time to get ready for possibly my only race of the year at the Greater Cleveland Triathlon the weekend of August 9th and 10th. We are going to be doing some special things for NATT that weekend so PLEASE if you are in the area take some time and come out and check out this fine event. This is one race you should definitely consider doing as a part of your racing schedule.
A year ago I participated in Two Olympic Distance Events the same day. I cannot believe I did such an insane thing...I hope all of out there get to enjoy the Memorial Day Weekend. We are enjoying it as much as we can given the circumstances...
Thanks for reading,
