Random bits and pieces of stuff

WARNING: There are a lot of pictures

While biking with Nick we stopped at the Continental divide, and as we stood there trying to figure out how to tell the other that we should turn back this bike adventure hurts, we heard some snowmobilers. The sound alone was enough for Nick to launch into a rant about snowmobilers, who he, I now know, hates. Well they came up behind us and crossed the road a few feet away from where we were. For some reason there was a large group of them too, I mean since when do they don things in groups? Anyways, as soon as Nick says "They're a bunch of d**ches!" the biggest one goes by. He stops, shuts off the snowmobile and starts walking towards us. We freaked out! I was thinking "Holy fudge knuckles! He heard him!!!", just as Nick says,"Let's go South!" We headed South. Fast. The reason we went South was because it's take us away from the snowmobiler, and farther away from town. That's the reason we kept going, and it kept us from having to tell other how much pain the ride was bringing.

I felt really good the day after the bike. As long as I didn't really do anything.

I made cupcakes on Friday. They were just plain vanilla but with a surprise at the bottom. (That surprise was a chocolate chip cookie) Sadly we ran out of powdered sugar, and I couldn't thicken the frosting enough to frost the cupcakes. Instead I wound up spooning frosting onto it and just shoving it into my mouth, before it came off. Yumm

I really suck at cleaning my room. Throughout my whole life I have sucked at it. I cleaned all of the downstairs yesterday, but I can't clean my room!

I got a sweet pair of goggles and a snorkel yesterday. I am so ready for summer! And Hawaii


Yay...I know it's sideways...

Some picture's from Tuesday's track meet:

I had stolen Eddy's hat from Max. I'm not sure why Max had it... (Photo: Max)

Bay, putting a bag of melted ice on my face. We had a lot of fun playing with that bag of water (Photo: Max)

The start of my and Bay's "fight"..... (Photo: Max)


My ankle still hurts!!! I should get that checked out... Never mind  too expensive I'll just wait until my next physical or next serious injury.

Men at Work is actually funny! I didn't think that but after watching it for the past couple of hours, I've found it to be really funny!

This was my attempt at modeling. It wasn't planned, I just showed up at their house one night after skiing and this is what they wanted to do: You should check out the photographer's Facebook page HERE
Look at that sports bra! (Photo: Shoshana)

I couldn't keep a straight face! Shonna would tell me what to do and I'd realize how ridiculous I  look!
Arm muscle! Heck ya! (Photo: Shoshana)

I just realized how strange my eyes look (Photo: Shoshana)

Well I tried (Photo: Shoshana)

Hey! I finally fixed my bookshelf! Ya, one of the shelves collapsed under the weight ..But all's good now. Well not all, I still need another bookshelf. I only have one and half. you may be wondering about that half. Funny story (do you remember what I said about "funny story"?), it also collapsed  Except when it collapsed the entire bottom half was crushed. The top half came out perfectly fine though, and that's how I wound up with half a book shelf.

I finished packing! Now I just have to figure out if I actually have what I need...
Awww, Major wants to come with!

Wow, I am really tired.

HAPPY EASTER!! for the past hour and a half...

Good night (morning?)

Timberman Triathlon

Okay, this one really is going to be short. I don't really have much to say besides what's about to be said. So....read on! First off do you know what a triathlon is? Or what the Timberman triathlon is? You don't? Let me explain then. A triathlon is where you swim, bike, and run. You're timed in each event and your transition time (how long it takes you to go from one event to the next) also counts against you. The Timberman is a triathlon held in Grand Rapids MN. It has a long course (mile swim, 26.2 mile bike, and a 10K run. But don't quote me on the bike) and a sprint course (1/3 mile swim, 13.1 mile bike, and a 5K run, but don't quote me on the bike again). It's a fun event put on every year and draws a nice crowd of people from every age and fitness level. I did the short course and this is how it went: Swim The swim was by far my worst event. I did it in my sports bra and spandex shorts (last year I did it in normal shorts and nearly lost them!...

Ummmm......YOLO??

[editor's note: this was actually like two weeks ago, I just hadn't published it] So yesterday we had our second outdoor meet, which was like our fifth meet overall, and it was, ummmm, interesting to say the least. It was really fun, it didn't even feel like an actual meet because it was just so fun. Oh, FYI there'll be a couple random pictures that have nothing to do with yesterday, I just wanted to share them. Though at the same time there'll be some from yesterday. Keep your eyes open and see if you can tell the difference, cause you probably will be able to. It's really not that hard. This is my life Screen shot this gem off of SkierSayWhat First of all, I didn't sleep at all Monday night. Not a freaking wink. I was up all night talking with Max about things that should've been talked about awhile ago, and getting advice/being all philosophical with Tyson, oh and snap chatting Autumn. Then they all eventually went to bed, Max was the last one ...

First distance run in awhile...

KJ was gone today because of the Elite meet, and so he left us with a workout and put Amber in charge. Amber is a student at the college studying to become a physical educator  She's almost, but not quite, an assistant sprinting coach.  Some pictures from the Elite meet. Courtesy of KJ: The workout was just 4 laps with 100 yrd sprints on the straightaways, 10 100s with 40 second rests between. The weight room was locked and since Amber isn't an official coach she doesn't have a key and we couldn't workout. I don't think anyone was sad. That was the earliest the girls sprint team has ever finished. Usually we're the last ones there, because KJ just talks and talks. I decided that since I haven't really been training for the half-marathon well at all since track started that I should probably go for a run. Start gathering some miles up. WORST IDEA EVER, actually that's a lie. I've had worst ones. Like working out with Nick. I...
