~Sum It Up Sunday~

On Monday...
shhh don't tell anyone


One thing is for certain, I am staying consistent with not quite staying focused. Two weeks into it and I've had lots of distractions both work and fun. Although I have been loosely following my Triathlon Training it has been S.L.O.W moving! Can we just add a couple more hours to the day???

~Slow and Steady Wins the Race???~

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!!
just a day or so late...

We had a nearly perfect fourth and hope the same goes for ya'll! We didn't have any official plans so we just went with the flow. It was nice to be able to celebrate this holiday with our sweet lil family unit. We started the day out slow and just walked around our funky lil neighborhood taking in the morning scene. Stopped off at the corner market to pick up some last minute necessities. We decided to get to grilling and head down to the beach for the long haul. Behold a sweet photo montage aka excessive amounts of photos used to tell our story...

Sleepy Wagon Ride Home Late at Night


Yes life is good when you get to take it slow on a day like the 4th of July! Not so good is my S~L~O~W start to my tri training. My body still seems to be healing from a recent back injury and I am getting it checked out soon so I am hesitant to register for the September Tri Rock Series. If it is only the sprint distance, this is an event I hope to be apart of. If not there's always the San Diego Women's in October! I have a week under my belt for the 10 Week Training Plan for the Olympic distance training plan and I do eventually plan to blog about it. Planing a Sum it Up on Sunday post and will play catch up for the last week! One thing I haven't been slow at lately are my bike rides!!!





And I am a happy lil beachmom now that Craig can keep up too!
