Rest day...

Day off.  Thats it.  We all need it.  Tomorrow we go at it once again with full power in the legs.  Played a little Call of Duty and now I am checking out the Oregon Auburn Game! It's a good one!

Weather does not look good, probably gonna be a week on the trainer!

Took Sunday off, had a day with the family...


The first thing I usually do in the morning is grab my Iphone and check the weather.  Today looked like doomsday!!! Look at the pic! lol So I just went back to sleep to later find out that it was the most beautiful day ever.  I felt like it was a good day to head out to the flea market to see if I could get any deals.  We went to the big flea market in Brownsville where you can get anything and everything! You can find stuff from the mall here, its like if your shopping a Hollister, A&F, Macy's lol  well most of the stuff is fake and or broken but you will find it!

If you want pampers here is the spot!  Brought to you by good ol' medicaid and having 12 kids!

Found a cool looking bike, it was two bikes parallel connected together. I would be going in circles with this thing because I would want to drop the passenger! lol

After we took off from the Mexican Mall, we went to Panda Express!! They just opened the first one here in my area and it is one of my favorite restaurants from when I was a chunker.  ahhh memories!!!

Later in the day we played some tennis to burn a little calories.  I then ended the day with some Wendy's chili and chicken nuggets to wash it down.  Now that is what I call an off day.  We need one of these days every now and then to keep us sane.  Back to the plan tomorrow!

Rest Day...

I sooooooooo needed this.  For the past week my legs have been feeling like Jello. The exact same feeling you get when you try running as fast as you can in the sand but you don't get anywhere.  That has been the way it has felt the past few rides.  Even though I know that I need some well deserved rest, and know that the reason my legs feel like concrete blocks is too much riding... I still want to get out there everyday and get some miles in.  Well since today is Monday, my planned rest day, I am going to just sit around and chill the whole day.  No cycling, no running, no games, no walking fast, nooooo nothing!

So since I am not riding today the next best thing to do is surf the web and look at bike stuff.  I already ordered three pairs of awesome Castelli cycling socks from Bonktown.  Really thinking about ordering the red white and black Castelli jersey to go along with it but I'm trying to resist the urge!  My finger is getting itchy! aahhh oh well...lol

Lets try a new sport...

 

Went out to the driving range today with Billy and Arlene to see what we got.  I'm always up for a challenge to see who is more manly!! lol  but I guess I did not believe Billy when he said that he was a 4 year varsity golfer in high school and was one of the elite golfers in his time playing at that level.  Yea that should tell you everything but I thought to myself "Na, it's Billy... lol"


Billy was not lying.  He can hit the ball hard out there, that's crazy!  I need a lot more swings before I can talk trash to anyone in this sport.  I hit a couple good 150 yard ones out there but it was just a few out of the 90 balls I hit.  Anyways.... I still hit the ball with more style lol..

Rest day...

Mondays are officially rest day in my book.  After the long week of constant exercise, one day of doing nothing is well deserved.  It's hard to not do any activity because i'm so used to it, but the body will thank me for it.  Tomorrow it's back on the saddle starting at 5 am.  So ready!
