Alright, now that that's over......

I'm on vacation - Woo Hooo!!!!!!! Just knowing I don't have to think about work for the next 9 days makes me all giddy.

So I'm trying to plan my week. I do want to get lots of training in simply because I have the time. I think today will be weights and I'll go for a run later in the afternoon.

We will be doing our usual Saturday errands today I just have to keep the beer to one small one so I can run later :)

Or, ocean swim tomorrow and then a run over Diamond Head. There's a race next weekend that's a ride or a run. I was planning on doing the ride but since I haven't ridden my bike in like forever, and since it's still in the shop, I'm guessing the run is the way to go. The run goes right into Diamond Head Crater which is pretty darn cool. Hmmmm, decisions, decisions.

Of course, I could wait and go during the week when it's not as crowded. Oh, I don't know.

I do know I need to go have my protein shake and get to my weights. I hear them calling my name......

Flo, you are awesome. Strong, opinionated, smart, athletic. You are the kinda woman I hope to marry some day, oh yeah, that's why I marriedI already married one of those women Sharon. Is your husband from the islands? Polynesian men love strong women. It seems a lot of American men are threatened.

I always seem to get less training when I'm on vacation. And lots of time I get more training done when I have a lot on my plate.

You gotta get on that bike of yours. You can't really blame the weather.

Hope you have a nice vacation staying home this week. That run sounds fun to the diamond crater. And wow, doing the honolulu marathon, that's awesome. I still haven't gotten over the "when is this going to be over feeling" when I run and hope that will pass with trying to jog more. I need to increase it if I want to do that mini tri this summer. Hope you have a great week.

There are many ways to measure success,

and today I found yet another one. The Great Aloha Run this morning was just awesome. I didn't break any records, it was not my best time by far, but I think this was one of my best races ever. After getting up at 4 a.m., driving to the finish line, catching a bus to the start, standing in line for the port-a-potties(more on this later), I still found myself with over 45 mins before the race started. So I found a place to sit and people watched for 1/2 an hour - that is always fun. Finally, at 6:45 we headed out to the start. One of the things the Great Aloha Run does is they have the Sounds of Freedom. These are military units from all over the island that run in formation singing cadence the whole way. They line up on the side of the road and they have a silent start 8 minutes before the race starts. It's always a special sight to see them go. I'm a flag waving fool and when I see our military I just get all gushy. I feel so proud to live in a country where young

Colloidal Silver

-
colloidal silver is very fine particles that are suspended in liquid, usually water. This apparently has antimicrobial properties and has been used externally to treat wounds and burns to prevent infection. Working in the lab we get lots of nasty, nasty burns. You ain't been burned till you've been burned with hot sodium hydroxide - yow momma!!!! Anyway, we always kept a jar of colloidal silver around and used it on burns. It not only helped it heal it seemed to reduce the pain. I don't know how it just did. Now, some folks think you should drink this. They say it has antibiotic properties and is fairly harmless to drink. I don't know if that's true but it sure would be nice if it was. I hate taking antibiotics for a number of reasons. It would be nice to be able to drink something and have the same thing happen. colloidal silver has also been used to keep potable water drinkable for long periods. This sounds like some pretty amazing stuff. Being the scien

My blog is great!!!

Look to the left there. My blog has been rated by blogged.com as Great!!! I scored 8.5 out of 10. Woo Hoo!!! I don't normally get excited over things like this, but I'm on a mission to create great blogs and this is just a little validation. So for some reason I was incredibly busy last night and stayed up way past my bedtime. As a result I didn't get up this morning. Well, that and the fact that is was freaking cold. We are in this spring weather cycle where it is warm and beautiful during the day, and cold, cold, cold at night. Makes for good sleeping but hard getting out of bed. Fe-Lady is raising funds for a really, really good cause. Go here and help her out why don'tcha. In my humble opinion there is not enough we can do to help out our American Heroes. So go, give, it'll feel good...... That's it for now. I need to get some work done.
