made it

We made it through the first day of school. 3.5 hours of training, a great swim with Kim, waiting nervously and making several calls while Luc's bus was very late.... and last but not least..... sitting in class.

What made class much better was knowing a few souls in the class, who are not annoying. You know those annoying ones, the ones who need to raise their hand when class is over. The ones who know it all..... the adult learners.... wait I am now considered an adult learner.

The interesting thing about being a nurse at the University of Rochester is what we have our own nursing school, and everyone in class is between the ages of 25-50. So it isn't like I am the oldest at 34. I am right in the middle.

And I am starting to see I will be with some of these gals through my entire Masters program. Which made me happy when I realized Wende, from the Adult side (Adult ED) would be too. She's one I can hang with.

I almost fell asleep during class.

Yesterday I got an email that offered me a rolldown spot to the Best of the US race in October. I sighed. Man, that would have been fun. But I am in no sprint condition right now. And I am prepping for Austin. And we will be heading to Ironman Florida. I can't pack that much into October. I would like to, but I can't.

Pass it along, I told the race director.

This week's workouts are going well. I am hitting some big intensity today. Good tempo workouts on the bike and the run. Yesterday I got to swim with one of my athletes Kim, and today I get to swim with Kelly B. She's home form Colorado to do SOS!

Onward we go...... day two of school for Luc.... and no school for me today! Hip Hip Hooray!
