I just signed up for my summer race!

A 12 hour supported adventure race including hiking, mountain biking, canoeing, & ropes in mid July!!

I'm increasing my weekly training and plan to lose about 2% more body fat.

I bought my new Marin Quad mountain bike, and I'm ready to go!

I'm excited, and if I do well then I also want to get a teammate and compete in the Adventure Race in September. This race is a little tougher: 105 mile bike ride; 3 miles canoe stretch; 15 mile run. Racing with a teammate makes it easier to finish!

It's going to be a great summer!

Who else has big plans?

I am going to Virginia to see my nephew graduate from Army jump school!!!

I could never do that now need to train alot

That is great! Will you see lots of demos??

Wow Melody, I feel so feeble. I run 5 miles a day and thought I was in good shape. I've competed in a mini-tri in the military but nothing compared to that.

Yes you could!

Anyone can if they train.

It's hard but not impossible.

I used to run marathons about 10 years ago and blew out my knees, so I started adventure racing. It's a lot more forgiving on the body and I like the cross training!

I started all of this after I stopped competing in fitness pagents.

I'm very competitive and I just keep downsizing as my body gets more injuries.

I try to do at least 2 races a year. I am 'feeble' -- as you put it -- compared to my friends. They are hardcore! They do it to the point of not being fun anymore. I always want this to be fun and recreational.

Bump

Wow! That's totally awesome! Good luck and have fun.

No big plans here except I am planning on moving into a bigger apartment which will be REALLY nice for me and my kids.

Congrats! I'm sure you will appreciate the increased living space.

That sounds pretty awesome. My only plan right now is to just keep exercising more .

Yeaaaa! Just keep excercising! As long as you are doing it for you -- and you have fun. Yeaaaa!

My only plans are to give birth. I think that will do me for a while.

Whoo hoo! Yes, that is a big plan and the only plan you should have, uh?

I wish you and your new arrival the very best!

My big plans....well if everything goes to plan I hopefully will fight my first Muay Thai match in the late summer.

I want to watch!!! Tell me when!!

Will do...it wont be professioal...so it wont be televised.

Plans for Mid July??? I can't even think that far ahead!

Go do your thing baby....I will keep the bed warm.

Well, it's not the summer.......but I'm heading to Idaho on Saturday for a week.
