Rabbit-isms!

There's always room for another race!
That's a horrible idea... What time?!

What SUP Rap

Saturday STEB had quite a productive day
Running, swimming, and then walking? No way!
Tried to do her run at a familiar place
But work was being done inside the track space
TJHS(ST) - most of the renovations are done!

So she headed to another familiar location
Her sons' old high school - son of a gun!
It was nice to have some company here!

The plan was one hour with a 1 mile time trial
She had company on the track the whole while
STUR got up early Saturday to run on the trail -
The air was not too humid-easier to  inhale.
Very quiet and peaceful for her first little bit-
Then lots of bikers and runners -the trail they did hit!
She went a little over 10KEH out-
A nice breeze started blowing without a doubt!
Got back in time to do some burpees…
Then sat by the river-she wasn't in a hurry!
Breezy and choppy on the Potomac!

The Potomac was rocking with a few white caps -
Glad it wasn't a swimming day - oh snap!
After a short break STEB headed to her pool…
Another time trial was the rule!
No chop at EPSC!

After a warm up she did 1000 meters
Counted each length out - didn't want to be a cheater!
Then after another short recovery
Headed to the lake to walk with her Riley
Riley, checking out the scenery!

Along the way they saw lots of critters
A spider...
Spider webs are so cool!
Unless you walk into one! 


A frog...
Freddie Frog - so cute!

A chipmunk for starters...
Charlie Chipmunk going after the flowers!

Then through the trees they spotted something big and white
It was an egret - it was out of sight!
Very peaceful on the lake!

Sunday morning - the Harbor was calling STUR's name -
Glad to be back in the open water swimming game!
The water temp was a PERFECT seventy-eight!
And some very flat water did await!
STUR literally ran into KBun near a big yellow buoy-
Then they said one lap to go- bunch of hooey!
Sunday morning STEB was to do a brick
90 minutes on the bike followed by a short run - slick!
Trixie, waiting patiently for a ride!

Did the familiar North Springfield loop plus a bit more
Then ran briefly at Lake Accotink - it wasn't a chore!
A little later STUR arrived at her house right at noon
To give her a lift to SUP - STEB was over the moon
There they met up with BLUR and CBun
For a 1pm session which was lots of fun!
Rabbits were all smiles before SUP!
They were smiling after, too!
This time STEB went farther than before
It was 2.34 miles and not a smidge more
BLUR was hot and worried about sun burn
That's when she practiced a pivot turn!
She accidentally fell into the drink
But she's a good swimmer and did not sink!
She got back up from the side of the board - which looks hard
But she did it with ease - a total rock star!
The rabbits practiced some yoga moves
Downward dog and child's pose was their groove
Surf Reston is laid back and chill
A great way to get into SUP if you will!
Three Rabbits went for a Slurpee after-
One exploded on STUR – frozen Coke to the rafters!
Afterwards, STEB took Trixie up to Tri Bonzai
She won’t get to see her till Friday – wonder why?!
