The Birds and The Bees

Today while driving down the street the following conversation took place behind me in the back seat:

Logan: G, do you know how we got makeded?

Garett: Uh, yeah, Jesus put us in mom's belly.

Logan: Yep, that's right. Jesus builded us and then put us in momma's tummy and now we growded big!

Can life be any sweeter (or simpler) than hearing conversations like that?

Ironman Schedule

SO many of you have asked for the schedule so here it is. This is the schedule I started out with but found, on a few days, I did more or less than I had scheduled myself to do. I made up for it on other days. Let me know if you decide to do it. I can't wait to hear how it all goes! Good luck to all!
PS-Click on the schedule and it will get bigger and easier to read!

Ironman Challenge- FINISHED!! DONE!!! COMPLETE!!

(Tamara, our friend Jenni and I went on a 25 mile bike ride last Saturday morning to knock out some of our biking miles! It was a BEAUTIFUL morning and made me feel soooooo lucky to live in CO)

After what seemed like an eternity on the stationary bike, enough time in the pool to have me singing "Just keep swimming" (from "Finding Nemo) to my children as I tucked them in at night and endless minutes on the road and treadmill, I have FINISHED my Ironman Challenge!! 112 miles on the bike, 26.2 miles running, and 169 lengths (we thought it was 155 lengths until we realized the pool we're swimming in was 25 YARDS, not METERS--seriously, this country needs to convert to metric!) I completed my goal within the 2 weeks we were given to do it in! As crazy as it sounds, it really wasn't as bad as I thought it would be!

A HUGE, HUMONGOUS shout out to TAMARA for her awesome encouragement, motivation and determination. I don't think I know anyone who has "The Eye of the Tiger" more than she does! You rock girl and I can't wait for our next challenge!!

To anyone interested in doing this challenge, GO FOR IT!!! It's a great way to get in shape, feel good about yourself and have an amazing sense of accomplishment. Let me know if you want to give it a try and I'll send you the training schedule with all the distances! You CAN do it!!
