Battle Rap

STEB officially named her new wheels Candy 2.0

Introducing...

On Friday she christened her on the North Springfield loop!

Candy 2.0!

Felt like she hadn't ridden in about a year
To top it off she is still figuring out the gears!
Before this she'd never used Shimano 105
She vows to get the knack of it before the Great Pumpkin Ride!
Saturday morning STUR did NOT have to get up at the crack-
A 10:00 am race start meant more time in the sack!
The race was called the fall in love 10K-
Another race on the tow path - yay!
Flat and the temperature was perfect -
The weather gods felt sorry for us last weekend I suspect!
Accessed the race from Rosslyn and the key bridge-
Did she do more than 10K? Just a smidge!
STEB got up a little bit earlier it seems
She was going to double up on her training.
First up was a 2200 yard practice with masters swim
She got in a lot of fly too, for the win!

The water was gloriously cool on Saturday!

Next up she planned to run from Audrey Moore to Lake Accotink
Though now some of the trail has been paved, you think?

STEB's favorite NOVA pool for a Saturday morning swim!

Looked in a tunnel for Pennywise,
Happy he wasn't lurking inside...

No red balloons floating down there, either...

She also went all the way around and up to the gateAnd happened upon a fitness challenge which looked great.

One nice volunteer took time to answer STEB's questions and show her the course map.
Looks like a fun event for a wonderful cause!

Go Time Fitness was the one
They raise money for the Yellow Ribbon Fund*
STEB had a cool shindig to attend on Saturday night
For her 35^th high school reunion and it was alright!

That was such a long time ago!

Met up over at Ned Devine’s
And had their own little party room off to the side
Her favorite teacher was there, too
STEB wished she’d spent more time with her, though.
Also not at the crack- STUR met the beast at the pool-
They usually don't swim on Sunday morning as a rule.
Got in 4000 meters including many 25 sprints -
The butterfly ones certainly made them wince.
Sunday afternoon there was a little rabbit meeting
To see a "Battle of the Sexes" movie screening
The rabbits gave it two ears up
Amazing what one person’s actions helped get done!

Afterwards there might have been some Nando’s Peri Peri…
Was it good? Oh yes – very, VERY!

Their chicken is yummy!
