The goal for this week: Finish the Book and Do Yoga
So as we all know (if you read the blog), life is not the most exciting at the moment- I’m on a detox and reading a book that I hate. Life is good otherwise, even in my ice cream-less, wine-less state, but reading a bad book is bringing me down. That’s why, I have promised…

A Trip to the Allergist…
Growing up in DC, I had allergies every spring. Every. Single. Spring. From just after my birthday until the middle of May, I would sneeze, sniffle, blow, and wheeze until I was miserably dragged to the Doctor for antibiotics (my sinuses always wound up infected) and a shake of the head (from both parties) and…

Update: Yes, I’m still craving Ice Cream….
Update: Yes, I’m still craving Ice Cream…. (Click me for the Sydney Morning Herald Article!) Reading this article this morning didn’t help! FYI, Kohu Road Cookies and Cream is AMAZING as is Serendipity’s Blood Orange Sorbet and also their chocolate ice cream!!!!!!!!!! I highly suggest trying them all, they’re stocked at Maloney’s in Coogee if you…

It’s Oscar Day (doesn’t quite sound right, does it?)
It’s Oscar day which if I were in the States I would care about a lot more than I do from Australia. For starters, I’m at work, which doesn’t exactly lend itself to watching a 3 hour awards show or even the 2 hours of red carpet interviews leading up to. We have a TV…

Detox Week 1: Will someone please get me some chocolate ice cream?????
So I’m done with my first week of detoxing, and to be honest I haven’t done that badly. Only three glasses of wine (I’m allowed four) and pretty much no wheat or cow’s milk consumed by yours truly which is pretty good. I’ve been exercising and feeling really good, I’ve taken up yoga– well the…

And he’s done!
He’s finished the race despite some pretty bad cramps. It may not have been the time he wanted but he’s dine it! I’m really proud of him but I guess I have to work on my Candy now. I can’t let the team down!!!

Spoiler Alert!
Spoiler alert: The Runner is running! He’s just started the 20km run and looks pretty good and strong, which means he survived the bike! Hooray! The scariest part of the day (for me at least) is done! He hasn’t crashed his bike or gone flying off over the handlebars. What a relief!! Hopefully I won’t…

On your mark, Get Set, Go!
It’s race day in Husky– right about now The Runner is treading water in anticipation of the starters gun. Drinks have been measured, (non-alcoholic so far, he still has a whole race to get through!), gels have been glued, carbs have been loaded (thanks to a brown rice and chicken dinner last night– I’ve done…

A Tri Festival???
The question of the day or at least the car ride: Is a triathlon a festival? No points for guessing which side The Runner argued and which side I argued. Some background required. This weekend is the Huskisson Triathlon Festival, down in Huskisson (Jervis Bay). It’s a whole weekend of triathlon events. For The Runner,…
