Ok, so this weekend went exactly as I had hoped. I wanted to do something physical, ANYTHING but sleep is just too nice and enjoyable. I lifted weights on Friday, and did nothing this weekend. No swimming, no biking, no running, no lifting but plenty of sleeping. Sleeping IS one of my strengths. I am probably the best sleeper any of you know. Anytime, any where on any surface. If there is a challenge, bring it on. (Or bring it on 2) Anyways, Monday inevitably arrived and I had to go back to work, which meant I would work out again. Monday's workout consisted of swimming and lifting. I am getting better at swimming. My brother in law said he didn't want to do a triathlon with me (even though he already bikes and runs for recreation) because he said he would sink and he sucks at swimming. Everyone does! It has taken a while but I am getting better. The trick is your breathing. But that is not the point. Today I rode my bike into work despite it being freakin' cold and windy. I wore a long sleeve shirt which worked great for my top, but didn't do anything for my legs and my poor freezing hands. What a difference temp and outside conditions make on my biking. Normally I get to work in about 30 mins and bike around 20mph. Today it took like 45 and I avg around 15mph. What a difference being cold can make. For right now my whole body hurts and feels tight. I hurt in places that never hurt before (I still need bicycle shorts) so when I try to figure out too much or too little I guess for me I will keep up my 5 days a week program and then as I get closer to my longer triathlons (and after day light savings) I will add in morning workouts and weekends. But for now, I think 5 times a week works for me.
And now the real reason I blogged today... (and to be honest) the only real interesting part about my blog...Today's Top 5:Top 5 websites that are awesome, and a complete waste of time, and just cool. If you got time to kill you HAVE to check these out. And all are safe for work, maybe not for little eyes, but safe for adults. Enjoy.
1. www.Engrish.com - The wifey and I are going to submit to this website. For those that don't know... engrish is like spanglish... it is the Japan's (or other asian countries) attempt at speaking english. Way funny, cause they are real signs, commercials, t-shirts, etc.
2. www.YouGotOwned.net - Awesome videos of people getting hurt (nothing serious). The phrase "you got owned" is somewhat defined in these videos.
3. www.WillItBlend.com - A really cool website devoted to blending everyday items. Now THIS is a blender!
4. www.HowToFoldAShirt.net - Not sure what language this is, but this is a real website. Really? Who sat down and decided they needed to make this video?
5. www.pointlesssites.com/our-favorites.asp - A website devoted to other pointless websites. A lot of fun (stupid) online games that can waste a lot of time. The honorable mentions are top games that kill time.
Honorable Mention:
www.i-am-bored.com/bored_link.cfm?link_id=9644 - A bit lengthy, but funny.
