Slept In! YEAH!

Got Yet another Massage today...Was talking so much that I'm not sure if I was distracting him from his work! ..Didn't remember it hurting enough..Has to at least leave bruises...I do remember he worked my foot tons..will see tomorrow how it feels when I run on it...

Lazily Rolled in to the gym at 1pm..ended up sharing a lane at the pool...And BOY the guy sure got chatty...Usually I have my armor on..An Ipod that says..."DON'T talk to me I'm into my badass music.." Maybe the Pink in my swimsuit made me look like a nice person..idk..(I'm being funny, Didn't mind too much.) He was asking about Triathlon stuff...I'm grateful he wasn't hitting on me..I hate it when I have to get UGLY.  

Ooops...Got all distracted with pictures...forgot to say what I was doing in the pool..

Was first swim since Rib Injury...Was a bit sore at the end..but not anything sharp feeling..so I am guessing it is ok. I worked on the drills Coach Heath gave me...Drills only. Wondering how my rib will respond to real swimming. Swam 50 minutes. I know..why not 60...Well this bothers me too..But my bladder was about to explode.

oh geesh you crack me up! Whatever, I always have to wear sunglasses and a hat so as not to divulge my identity or you know what happens at the gym. Signatures, book signings, phone numbers, etc.

its exhausting and it takes away from my workout.

From Scott Wesemann on Tue, Jan 19, 2010 at 01:47:47 from 75.162.72.176

50 minutes is actually pretty good. The last time I tried swimming laps I think I made it about 8 minutes before I had to puke. Ha. Maybe I'm not doing it right? Hey nie suit. I like the camo.

Uh oh, Missy rockin the Cammo suit =) Good workout Missy! What's in your badass music playlist?

From Samantha Dean-Howard on Tue, Jan 19, 2010 at 07:38:32 from 78.32.130.9

Hey Missy I hope you tapering well for the Half Marathon and If I dont blog well big Good Luck, love the swimsuit :-)

So you CAN relate Walter..I swear a vein is going to burst in my forehead when I'm trying to lift and some guys want to get social. I actually have a pretty vascular foreahead..I look like an alien up close.

Scott I Did feel kinda nauseated in the pool come to think of it..havent been used to the water since I've been back in. YEAH this suit was only $30..and its a TYR...bought 4 of them at that price...I will take a pix of the other one that has skulls on it..lol..I actually am not big on skulls..but I thought..what the hey!

Ha ha Vinh..ER I should send you an email of my badass music...Don't want to scare the other bloggers..:P OH. That Cammo suit: You might appreciate my fantasy..If I went back in time and was say..20 years old and they somehow allowed females, My dream job would be Navy Seals. In the meantime...I can just train like a beast..and pretend I'm badass like a Navy Seal.

Aw Sam! I Be a quitter..This is hard to explain..I don't run Half Marathons to enjoy the scenery or have the pleasure of knowing I can finish one..MY only joy in it is being able to run so fast it hurts..and since I am injured I see no point in Racing on Saturday (besides I save about $400 in travel I can apply to gear!)..Feb 1st My focus switches to Triathlon Training. Any road races I do after that point are purely to support TRI. BUT, Thank You Sam for remembering I had a race planned...and taking the time to pop by! :D

Haha, Navy Seal Missy would be awesome. Have you ever heard of David Goggans? He is one bad dude. Check out his website. He's inspired to run the Badwater Ultra sometime in my life.

I think we are Twins Vinh...Both wear cammo...Both are inspired by crazy badass navyseal dudes! I want to do Badwater too sometime...My Tri Coaches Brother did it last year..I should ask him about it...I have never done one but in my heart I think I'm an ultra distance personality..which is prob why Ironman sounds appealing to me...Lets do Badwater..cuz We are Badass Twins! Hope I don't get reprimanded for saying Ass...

From missy on Thu, Jan 21, 2010 at 01:02:33 from 63.224.123.223

OH, btw Vinh...Those David Goggins video's are pretty inspiring. I put one up on my Bodybuilding.com blog. :) Thanks for sharing him with me..he's wicked awesome!

From vinh on Thu, Jan 21, 2010 at 06:57:28 from 75.77.22.187

Haha, we are both crazy twins! Whoa, your coach's brother did Badwater? That's awesome. If you go to the Badwater site, it says you need to have run at least 2 100 mile races and have a lot of other stuff under your belt to be selected. I plan on starting ultra's this year so I can start building up my resume for Badwater =) I might do a 12 hour run in May, the Bair Gutsman in Aug (not an ultra but I hear it's a tough race) and a 40 miler in October. You also gotta get the DVD "Running on the Sun" a documentary on Badwater.

Yea, David Goggins is awesome. He makes us look like babies lol. Bodybuilding.com, I think I have a profile on there.

From missy on Thu, Jan 21, 2010 at 22:11:50 from 75.162.123.103

Vinh..I don't know his Bro's name..but my coaches last name is Thurston..So that will narrow it down...With Badwater only having 90 entrants...Crazy! How will we ever get in? We be Badass! That's right. :P Btw..I was all excited to see your friend invite on BB.com! Weeeeeeeeee!
