Game Day...

Beep beep, beep beep, beep beep. "huh?" beep beep, beep beep, beep beep. Oh crud, it's the alarm again. Damn it, go away alarm it's Saturday. Check out everyone else in the bed...Meg = passed out; Teton the cat = passed out. Ok, maybe just go back to sleep for just a few minutes, I mean it is Saturday after all! I had been sleeping very well last night, which was much needed, and now was playing the "should I get up now game" with myself. Finally, the decision is made...Ironman wins! I get up and brush my teeth.

Coffee. Where are you? Why don't you make yourself each morning and be waiting for me? Wait, you can do that? I just have to get it ready for you the night before? Damn, why don't I do that again? Oh well, on button is pushed and the magically sound of coffee being made is performed. A quick look over the sports section in the paper while inhaling an egg and ham sandwich reveals that the Ducks will have another tough test today. 18th ranked Utah is in town. And weather doesn't look great...high of 74 with morning showers.

The first cup of coffee starts to work and I begin to work on my post breakfast plans. Where is my IPOD? Short sleeve or long sleeve shirt this morning? Fuel belt, get over here. You see Meg has to host the tailgate today and therefore needs to be there early. I wasn't liking the idea of setting my arch nemesis (aka the alarm clock) to an earlier time so I'm getting my 2 hour run in on the way to the game. I'm going to meet her at the tailgate and she will have a change of clothes. Should be awesome! What an amazing girl I have :) She was actually the one that suggested the idea! I have a winner!!

And now I have an empty cup of coffee. I'm going to fix that. I'm also going to grab my runners and think about leaving soon!! Thanks to all for reading, sorry it's been kind of down lately...part of the ups and downs of Ironman training I guess. And...LET'S GO DUCKS!!
