Gear.

Dear friends,

I no longer have a kitchen.

bike shop


What used to look like a dining room now looks like a bike shop.

It is amazing how much equipment I am racking up for this race. Lots of hand-me-downs from my sisters, and lots of clearance REI merchandise, for sure! Let's see, I've got:
1 LeMond "buenos aires" 27 speed road bike
3 helmets (hand me downs, i don't know why)
many tires, tubes, wrenches, lights, etc. for my bikes
1 pair of bike shorts
2 pairs of tri shorts (meant for swimming, biking, AND running)
3 tri tops
1 pair of running shoes
1 swim suit
6 water bottles
an endless supply of Luna bars and electrolyte powdered drinks
2 pairs of swim goggles
1 pair of bike shoes

still waiting on my wetsuit, a water-resistant bag, and new pedals for my bicycle.

This is crazy.

(but I kind of love it.)

this is a direct quote "I will just get a bigger belt" in response to a question of eating too many sweets and refusing to work out. I love you.
