Sporty Spice
Spring quarter started 3 weeks ago, and I'm a bit ashamed to say that I'm not working very hard. But I'm working hard at training. Somehow, I got roped into doing a triathlon this spring (May 15th -
the Napa Valley Triathalon), and I'm actually trying to get in shape for it.
It's a 1200 meter swim, 17 mile bike, and 4 mile run. Running. Me. I've been running "the Dish" at Stanford - all told, about 4.5 miles in the foothills. That's right, I'm hard core. The swim shouldn't be too scary, and today Nicole and Emily and I went out for a bike in the foothills, I think it was between 15 and 20 miles. (We were supposed to go up Old La Honda - 40 minutes of lowest gear hell, but Emily was having trouble shifting, thank goodness.)
I'm also taking Yoga this quarter (that's right, for credit - how much of a slacker can I be??), so all told I'm doing at least one athletic thing a day. Today I ran and biked. Have I mentioned that I'm turning into Sporty Spice?
