Tried to keep up with an 18 year kid, no foolin'!
 |
| The lake loop! |
Afterwards she hit the trail for a run
Went 7.55 miles over flooding and mud
 |
| Damn the dam hill! |
Didn't attempt to cross at the dam
Since the water was flooded over, oh man!
 |
| The trail was completely flooded! |
Went under Braddock Road on the trail
Nearly fell twice in the mud but prevailed!
 |
| This was SO slippery! PBun managed to stay upright. Whew! |
She kind of ran again with RBug virtually
Who killed her 10k race you see
 |
| Ready to run! |
She's going to kill her Martha's Vineyard half
That she will run with her sister Donna, natch
 |
| RBug did it! Another race! |
Later worked on a little art project in her backyard
Just a basket with flowers - it wasn't too hard
 |
| Yard art / bike planter! |
Sunday morning was windy and chilly...
It's almost May - isn't that silly!?!
Even so BLUR and STUR met at their favorite haunt:
Fort Hunt Park for a bike and a jaunt!
First BLUR set up her very own transition area;
So she'll be calm and ready for race day- no hysteria!
 |
| Transition practice - and rabbit ears at the ready! |
Pretended to "swim" then got on her bike gear.
Mounted her bike and away she went - never fear!
While she biked, STUR did a 7.1 mile run -
Seeing BLUR pass her was always fun!
 |
| Partners in crime?! |
Then BLUR practiced her T2 game:
Getting all her gear together was her aim!
Once ready - she and STUR did a two mile power walk -
Another chance for some triathlon talk!
 |
| BLUR is ready to Try Tri! |
Also on Sunday morning PBun gathered with Jeff and KBun
They headed toward Cambridge MD - into the sun!
Parked at the school and prepared to ride…
The wind kept slamming the car door and knocked over Jeff's bike!
 |
| At least it was sunny! |
Wondered what they were getting themselves into...
But they hit the road since they had tri training to do!
KBun's race is 5 weeks out; PBun's race is 6...
And 70.3 is the distance that each is!
Made a pit stop at the Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad National Park
PBun plans to visit over Eagleman race weekend - not on a lark!
 |
| PBun is looking forward to checking this NPS location out soon! |
At times the wind was pretty strong
But not like Hawi, is that wrong?
KBun can most definitely attest to that
But the rabbits agreed wind training isn't too bad
 |
| Wind average was 14 miles per hour! |
On the way back they might have stopped at a DQ...
Then a roadside market to sample a cake or two!
 |
| Just a little banana split. Which made PBun think of this TV show...remember it? |
As far as STUR's swimming goes…
How many miles did she swim in total do you suppose?
She went 6 miles with her head staring at the black line -
Hoping it will translate to the open water just fine!
