So B got me out onto his turf this morning... or more like off turf all together. Swimming to me has always been going in the pool and getting under water just to cool off, so actually trying to swim swim was a different experience. What was truly different though was seeing B in his speedo. Yeah... I have a long way to go, but I think that dabbling and getting in the okay-good range with a variety of different activities makes you better at your main focus and you get to be a well rounded athlete. Can we call ourselves that? This morning also made me realize the importance of weight training, so this week I gotta get back into the regiment. Running tends to make you a little more lean in the upper half than I like, but between marathon training, the store all day and Kel/friends at night it's hard to get anything else in.
I also tagged along with B and Joel on the road bike for the first time. I know now why they like it so much, it is nice to get out on the road and cover such a distance but still not be in a vehicle. Like Hemingway said, you truly appreciate the country for what it is when you experience it on a bicycle. So in the midst of wedding prep and the store, we still manage to stay outside! Not near as much as I would like, but you do what you can!! Now it's church time for those of us who aren't being heathen and going to watch a bicycle race instead of worshiping God...
Never Stop Exploring!!
