those people who know me well, know that the first thing you see upon walking through my front door is numerous calendars. one, that has all twelve months so i can plan ahead. a large dry erase where i can plan my details each month, and my large color coordinated training calendar where i can obsess over each detail of my training month. yes. this sound really lame, and actually i'm thinking about taking the 12 monther down, and hiding it, just so i don't look quite so lame. regardless, those who also know me well know, i hate to put laundry away, i hate dirty dishes in my sink, i like things to be "in order", i and i always have a few to-do lists on my back burner, ok actually hanging on my fridge (yes multiple lists, i know!) . another very important aspect in my life is having at least one precious day per week (maybe once every two weeks, let's not get crazy) of just relaxing and getting my brain organized. just a quiet mellow, humdrum day. all that being said, yeah, the calendars aren't going anywhere (that was just an example of my "crazy"), i have about 4 loads of laundry that need to be put away, my house is quite cluttery, and i can't think of the last time i got my humdrum day?!? again, there hasn't been much humdrum #1 because i've been having so many exciting adventures (who's complaining?) and #2 i have so much laundry because i've been having so many exciting adventures. now, the definitions of "exciting adventures". many people may think, wow! what has katymoe been doing?!? well, basically there has been ONE big adventure. but for a girl who typically works and swim, bikes, runs, eats, sleeps. anything out of that box may seem exciting to me. give a girl a break, i'm no amtrekker. this leads me into another topic which seems to be.... training, ah hem! (oh yeah, isn't that what this blog is about??) well, it's hard to train/adventure. so there may have been a bit of "downtime", "cross training", "slacking" (for lack of a better word). in the last couple of weeks. in summation, the first of july brought some exciting news that i was going to have the opportunity to hike to the bottom of the grand canyon, yay! i worked the few days before while quickly trying to pack/laundry/organize for the trip. i spent friday the 4th in the car, hiked down saturday (ouch!), out sunday, and monday...then drove home monday. barely made it two work tuesday, wednesday, and thursday attempted to recover friday (yes, i was still sore), and let's not get into saturday. by sunday i was feeling like quite the slacker and decided it was the day to get "back on track" (that blog to come). in double summation, i'm thinking i will blog separately about the grand canyon journey (because it was incredible!) but i just wanted to send a quick update for today since i think i may have another hectic week ahead. goals for this week obviously "get back on track" with training, and organize my life :) (no big deal).
p.s. the picture is just to get you excited about what is to come in the grand canyon blog. yay/wow!
p.p.s. just because "spell check" doesn't recognize them as words doesn't mean they aren't. just sayin'.
