This morning I had to go to the Kaiser lab to get tests run – it’s a long story. Anyway – I got there right at 7:30 (because H had a conference call at 7:00 so we were up) and I was surprised to only have like 5 people in line in front of me. […]

Day 40! Wow, 40! Analysis of Episode 2 of TAR, plus Crossfit (surprise)
OK so I’m going to start with Crossfit. Today Anthony told me how much better I was doing than when I started. Yeah so fine, I live for that stuff ;-) I also brought some of the coupons I’d gotten from a client and gave them out to the “gang” (Jimmy, Karen & Rich, Ashley […]
Day 39 – “The Cast Questionnaire”…and my secret personal Amazing Race episode task desire…
Yesterday we took my Mom and Dad out for their 55th wedding anniversary (I think Mom said she calculated and when I’ve been married 55 years I’ll be 99 – !!!), and when we got home at 7:45 I was so wasted I just went to sleep! The Friday workout at Crossfit didn’t really do […]

Day 37 – okay, REALLY – ???!!!
Here was my post this morning on Instagram HERE. I mean – HONESTLY. You’ve just GOT to be kidding me. Now, granted, I’m not doing “full” burpees, or “full” pullups – I do the burpees on the edge of the “desk/box” and then the pullups from 3 of the big plates. But it was 10 […]
Day 36 (October 3) – Parlez-Vous…?
Yesterday night I didn’t manage to make it to the Team In Training practice – I was just too damned tired. I did, however, make a nice dinner for H and me ;-) What can I say? Today I met with a business colleague at the Farmer’s Market, and started noodling on my next RVMC […]
Okay, so I haven’t QUITE started an Amazing Race-related board yet (I am not sure I want to “come out of the closet” there yet), but I HAVE started pinning a few things on my Pinterest board that I like, including some hats I just found at an amazing website, Outdoor Research. My Pinterest site […]
Day 35 (October 2)
So, the WOD yesterday was for time: 400 run 30-25-20-15-10-5 overhead press 30-25-20-15-10-5 box jumps (What that means is you did a 400 run, then 30 OHP then 30 box jumps, then a 400 run, then 25 OHP, 25 box jumps, etc.) There were 3 of us – H, me, and a guy who […]
Day 34 (October 1) – TAR take-aways and (surprise!) Crossfit
So I was able to watch the first episode of The Amazing Race last night. As I have said to R, my “wish upon a star” goal right now is: (1) to get on TAR and (2) not to finish last. I figure that #2 could actually get us right on to the winning position […]
Days 31, 32, 33
I have to remember to get some sort of “counting app” for my computer – every time I go to write a blog post on our “365 days to TAR” I have to go back and physically figure it out from the calendar. Duh. I also have to say right off the bat here that […]
