Early Summer Fun

So far summer is hot, but fun. Work is crazy and will remain that way as I teach all summer. But it feels good, I feel focused. Running 3-4 times a week, one (at least) 30+ mile road bike ride every weekend. I have been riding my off-road bike to work, I love jumping curbs.


Some Recent pictures...

Not suede, but they are new and blue!

More biking, less running on Trace, too many horse flies, they don't bother the bikers.

This is the South after all....

So beautiful. I was on my bike, he wouldn't budge. I moved him off with a big stick. Very heavy.

You are enjoying it and that is the most important. Are those shoes still so clean? That is a beautiful snake. Keep it going!

What great shoes! And sounds like a very well-rounded summer. I wish I lived close enough to realistically ride my bike to work.

I'm looking forward to some heat - we're still bouncing between spring and winter. At least no more snow!

Loved the closed for the confederate holiday and the snake! ARGH!!!

Hahaha....oh how I remember my days living in Alabama and how "southern" it is. Heat, confederacy, snakes, bugs...the blue shoes are a nice distraction to that crazy south :).
Miss you!! xo

I have a love hate relationship with the heat...hate it but love how it helps me whip my rear into shape! Plus, it happens during MY favorite time of year - summer break. Gotta love it! And I do love those new shoes...wish I had a pair of my own.

Love the pretty blue shoes! The snake, well, not so much. It doesn't matter whether or not it's a harmless bull snake - any snake gives me jello legs! Glad you are enjoying some good bike riding!

I wouldn't have touched that snake with a 10 foot pole, much less a little stick!

I hate heat and humidity. I grew up in Missouri and do not miss that old nasty stuff.

Summer provides perfect abilities for the outdoor sports. I like running because it is good for the whole body. To get prepared for long runs I usually take Navy Seal formula, which quickly brings me up. This dietary supplement is manufactured by MGNutritionals and was developed specially for the Army, but it is good for everyone who needs more energy for active lifestyle.
