bzzzzzzz

bees! the bee costumes were a great success. we swarmed over to another co-op for a little bit last night and then headed south to check out 6th street. i'd never been to 6th street before, let alone on halloween, so it was quite the experience. think waikiki at midnight, but instead of just the sidewalks being packed, the whole street is closed off...and packed. crazy! after wandering around there for a little bit, we headed further south to 4th street where i ran into daniel and kacie and got to talk to them for a little bit. in the wee hours of this morning, we walked back up towards campus and headed to kerbey lane for some late night queso. so the take home message is that i had a lot of fun skipping and buzzing about and am glad i got to hang out with my roommates!

i have no problem running marathons, but walking about all night is just downright exhausting. my legs were sore before i even started my 20 mile run this morning. time-wise, the run wasn't super slow, but my legs are currently toast. i'm glad i have a day off tomorrow!

in other tri related news, my friends michelle and michael g. are currently racing ironman florida. michelle flew on the bike, averaging over 20 mph and is looking strong on the run so far. the splits are looking like im pr material. her husband michael isn't too far behind, but he wasn't able to train quite as much. he's a pretty strong runner though, so hopefully the marathon is easy (relatively speaking of course). michael b. is tackling the nyc marathon tomorrow morning. it will be his first marathon--good luck michael!
