Philly Tri Training

Training for the Philidelphia Tri...June 26, 2005

Welcome!

Well Lauren and I have decided that we wanted to share our training with the world...so fucked in philly it is!

Todays training was especially special. It consisted of a 5 mile run with a few pit stops (explained later).

We got ready for the run in our "tough chicks" MATCHING gear (yes we dress like twins for our workouts on a regualr basis...it is all coincidental..i swear), which included a bandana and sunglasses...so we look tough!

The run got off to a slow start, still being a bit sore from our 20 mile bike ride on saturday...and a few days off from running. We ran our normal route...and then continued to stretch it out a little...we dared to do 5 MILES!!! We got through the center of milford and this is when we began to get tired...and the first pit stop was upon us.

The first stop was at "Pink on the Harbor: a Lilly Pulitzer flagship store". Now there is a cute sight...two TOUGH chicks walking around a Lilly store...dripping in sweat...FABULOUS!
We spent a nice 20 minutes in there and then decided it was time to get going.

We proceeded to continue our run on a woodsy trail...which was not so woodsy. I don't know, but something about the trails in the woods behind the library seems odd...considering the woods are less than one square mile...pathetic!

Now we are back on the road and on the way home...ahhh...Gulf Street...our favorite. Everytime we run down this street we pick out the houses that we love and the houses that have "great potential". This part of the run was tough..we decided to go with intervals of walking and running.

After all of that we finally made it home...safe and sound..and a little sore!
Boy how we love ice...and icy hot :)

Until next time...
