On a rainy day

Behold the glory of our new racing outfits:

This morning, Kendall and I decided to take them out for a test run on our 3X3 training block (30 minute swim, 30 minute bike, 3 mile run). But we woke up to pouring rain. I mean POURING rain. But never fear, we did not back down. We decided to tackle the training as long as there was no thunder around swim time.

Completed the bike portion at the gym and then took off on the 3 mile course that leads back to my pool in a drizzle. We looked so Doublemint Gum cute in our matching outfits (right?). Cars couldn't help but honk at our ridiculousness. We were wet, but whatever, it's better than sweating. That is until we got an unexpected drive-by shower of mud as a car sped by. I tried my best to use Kendall as a shield, but she is just too dang skinny.

Completed the workout. I am grateful that the swim portion of the race is first and not last so as to reduce the risk of drowning.

Next time I'll remember to fasten the clasp on my fancy new bra top so I can reach the "performance" levels that it promises. Seriously.
