AND....My 2 weeks of recovery are over...


I was told by a very wise person that it is hard to have an interesting life and still have time left over to blog about it. Well, for the last two weeks, I guess that has been the case. Each morning I opened my daily coaching e-mail from Coach Woofie and saw, "You have no upcoming workouts." At first, I felt a little lost. But, then I started to think of all the fun (er, trouble) I could have (er, get into).

So, in order to keep it short and so I don't get too wordy, here is what I have been up to the last 2 weeks:

1.) I baked some cupcakes and sent them off in the mail to some very worthy runners...


2.) I carved a pumpkin...


3.) I ran a 5K with a 5'4" (or taller) banana and I really gave myself a fright...a good one!

Time of 22:13, pace of 7:09!!!
Getting my Frankenstein head trophy with Overall Female Winner, Rebecca Marvil.


4.) I attended the symphony...


5.) Went trick-or-treating with the 5'4" banana...



5.) Got rid of both of these hideous wall papers in my downstairs bath and and got paint instead...




6.) Got a treat of my Zipp 606 wheel set!!!


7.) Did a bunch of knitting...

Sleeves on a sweater I am almost done with.


8.) I bought more yarn...(you have permission to yell at me if I buy more)

Alpaca, angora, and just some fun chenille yarn...

9.) I did a little shopping...

Swimming adventures are on the horizon!

10.) I spent a weekend at my kid's swim meet...


And then today in my mailbox was this message...


Elizabeth Hi

I have your next four weeks up in TP. Next week is testing, mostly. I am holding your TRX workouts and foam rolling but I have added a couple of TRX workouts. I expect you to find the challenging but this is more in my campaign to bulletproof you and keep you injury free.


I will re-send all your exercises that we are re-using together with a PDF that has links to films of the new TRX exercises.

R/Woofie.

PS: You will see I have added 5Ks with expectations :-)


So today it was back to TRX and foam rolling goodness. I know I am going to be a little sore in the next day or two. Tomorrow is swim testing and run testing. This weekend is another 5K. We shall see how it goes...


Thanks for stopping by.


Later Gators,


Liz

Sounds like you had an awesome 2 weeks. I love the swimsuits! Looks like you have got yourself some great crusing gear!

I see you've gone back to your strategy of bribing the guys at Zipp with bikini pics, but now you've added candy and cupcakes into the mix?

You girl's don't play fair.
