So, down for the count day 2 (" It came at me like a wrecking ball") . I think I have slept more than my cat these past two days, which takes talent because he sleeps ALL day. He has been my care taker (insert adorable sigh of cuteness right here), bringing me his toys (mousey and hedgehog to be exact) to make me feel better (or remind me that he doesn't feel sick and is confused that I am not playing with him) what a kitten! Hopefully tomorrow I will be back and at it, but good news is it is very early in our training, and there is plenty of time to make up these lost few days. K had a busy day volunteering in Springfield at a organization called Newborns in Need. Sorting donated baby clothes, sewing blankets, and delivering packages for new mothers. Two thumbs up for you K!
As the title of our post says- it's meet and greet Monday.... Shall we?!
Best advice anyone has ever given you:
C: "Life is not fair, sometimes its awful, but the only option available to you is how you respond to it, you call the shots in your own life" - my dad
K: "It's better to be a hard worker than a smart [alack]" - mom
Favorite item of workout clothing:
C: Lululemon energy bra
K: Smartwool running socks
Hobby you want to get better at:
C: Photography
K: Piano
Favorite winter Olympic sport:
C: Short track speed skating
K: Giant slalom
Biggest concern about this triathlon:
C: Getting a penalty card on the bike for drafting and then having to sit in the time out tent for 5 min. Also not being able to brush my hair after the swim to bike portion (I don't know why this concerns me so much, but it does)
K: Not finishing due to some unforeseen circumstances. And also a flat tire...I don't know how to change one!
What chore do you absolutely hate doing:
C: Putting away my laundry after its been folded
K: Agreed w/ Court
Four things on your bucket list:
C: Dress up and go to a masquerade in Venice Italy. Re-learn how to play piano. Visit the pyramids in Egypt. Enter a photo in a large scale photography contest and win.
K: Move to England, climb K2, ski in Switzerland, become fluent in ASL, Spanish, French, and/or Romanian.
