So ready for off season...massive amounts of swimming and hot yoga have been sounding so good basically since the BIG DAY.  Yet, there was one more race...Augusta 70.3...

as KATIE DAVISON!...NO...NOT last race...but last race as Katie Davison...I needed this victory! (BIG DAY, where I will become Katie Palavecino, is in less than 2 weeks...where has the time gone?!).

The LURAY DOUBLE...is becoming my favorite race/race weekend. Great town, great race, great people.

What is the birthday workout?  The birthday workout was created by our friend Tim Peters.  For however old you turn (X), you must swim X00 yards, bike X miles, and run X minutes.  I turned 33 on August 3...so the workout would be 3300 yard swim, 33 mile bike, and 33 minute run (or maybe skate since it is my birthday and running hurts).

4.4 mile swim…this one was a serious curser. What do I mean by this? Well, for those of you who know me pretty well…you know that I do not swear. About halfway through this swim I had absolutely nothing nice to say. Good thing no one can hear you when you talk while swimming.
