***Real quick! I am planning on going to watch TOU next weekend, if anyone wants a ride up that morning, let me know. I'm in Bountiful and can meet up with anyone on the way. I'd love the company. I can take up to 6 others. I think it would be fun to bring our bikes and ride up part of the course so we can see more of the race. I'd be open to running instead too. There are so many people running, I want to cheer them all on! 6:30AM: 6 miles down Main. It felt good to get out. Chased the garbage trucks and breathed in junk the entire time. Then came home and smelled my dirty dishes. Felt right at home. Working 6 days in a row always throws off my home routine! Glad to have 8 off now and can focus on my kids, house, and running. PM: 8:00PM : Two hours of a full workout. Playing tennis was secondary. I got talked into joining a women's Tennis league this fall and I AM TERRIBLE! I laughed so hard the entire time. I'm sure the others wish I would have taken it seriously. It was that kind laugh that you can't stop. I laughed when I hit the ball out of the park, when others missed the ball, then I laughed at the ones taking it so serious. No one was safe, I laughed at everyone and felt like a 3rd grader. By the end everyone seemed to be laughing too. We played doubles playing 3 sets each, 15 games total. I think we won maybe 4 games as a fluke. My partner was very patient and kept telling me "Nice try." That made me laugh too. I think I need private lessons if they are going to allow me to continue. My right arm is pretty sore and somehow I bothered my little injury in my glut/hamstring. I need to decide if this is something worth it. I would hate to get injured over tennis! But overall so much fun. I guess If I end up dropping out, I will go anyway and be the ball girl. I've always secretly envied that role. I could even use it as sprint workouts:) I need a tennis skirt!!!!
