Update/Bella Poseur!!!

OK today was a nice lil' doubleheader...perfect for a beautiful Sunday in Boulder that got cloudy and stormy and nasty just as I finished. Lucky me. I got a great five-to-six-mile hike in at Flagstaff followed by a very nice six-mile run at the Res. Well, six miles according to the Boulder Backroads race chart, which I hope is right, since it's my big ending race this summer.

Awesome day. Nothing aching, couple of things a little tight, but nothing a decent stretch sesh and some yoga asanas won't fix.

Interesting aside: coming back from the res I saw a female cyclist...on a bright electric-pink bike...and as I rolled down the window to shout something encouraging her way, I looked at heer closely and realized...she wasn't Bella. I don't think so, anyway, unless Bella's grown her hair out and dyed is dark brown. Anyone reading thi blog is familiar with my mild idolization of Bella Comerford, the Triathlete Extraordinair who's a couple of years older than me and is easily spotted by her electric-pink bike whenever she;s out riding. Confused, I went home and checked out Bella's site...and she has a new, black bike instead of the pink one. It'll be harder to spot her around town, and now I'm wondering who the Bella Poseur is...that was not a bike that would be affordable to the common man...or woman...

Anyway, that was my day; I hope it's the catalyst for a training turnaround.
