Biker dudes & dudettes

Seriously, why is it so grainy? Click on it and its way cuter.

Emily invited us on a bike ride up the canyon trail. The plan was to go all the way up to Vivian Park and Emily & I would walk with her littles in the stroller. Sounds lovely, right? Well, it took us about 10 steps into it to realize we wouldn't be walking much or we wouldn't see the kids again for a couple of hours! When we gasped our way into Canyon Glenn--2 1/2 miles up the trail--we had to call it a day. I was redder than a beet and had pools of sweat puddling around my eyes...as well as everywhere else. Not the picture of beauty that I normally am. We kinda slinked past the truck load of city worker boys and found a great spot for lunch. Then began the 2 1/2 miles back down the trail.

Funny thing is, I have been doing INSANITY workouts for over 2 months (and lost 20 pounds--thank you very much) and I'll tell you what--I WAS SO SORE I COULD BARELY MOVE for the next 2 days! Running is a serious workout!! Looks like I found the key to loosing this next 20 lbs...barf.

hey good job lady! Do you want to run the 5k with me on the 4th? it's $25 and I think you even get a shirt. Come on, it would be fun to run it with someone.

ok, but I'm also training for Ragnar, so I may not run with you the entire time as I'm trying to improve my speed, but....I'm pretty slow right now casue Miles and his naughty ways have kept me away from the gym for the last 2 months.
