Last Friday, our friend Melisa moved into a new house that has all new roommates. They threw a birthday/housewarming party. When the moved in, they found all these random hula hoops in the basement and when Melisa googled the address it appears that a professional hula hooper by the name of "Dizzy Hips". I included a picture of him to give you an idea. If you have some time, you should You Tube him...it is quite interesting. However, by the end of the night we were all hula hooping and I am looking into getting my own professional hoop to burn some calories while I am watching TV.
On Saturday, we went to the Farmers Market then headed down to Castle Rock and camped out at the fairgrounds for the Elephant Rock ride. Chris did 62 miles and I rode the 34 miles course with our friend Becky. We took several photos with her camera, but I am stil waiting on them. We both rode well, which was suprising since we only got three hours of sleep the night before. It was very difficult to get any sleep between the loud campers next door (of course the only ones in the entire place), trains blowing their whistles through town, coyotes yelping, and trucks on the highway. I don't think we will ever be camping out there again. However, it was worth it since the ride was beautiful with Pikes Peak in the background.
This week as been some crazy weather. There have been thunderstorms like crazy including some with hail.
Also, I did my first Stroke and Stride this week. I did pretty decent on the swim for it to be my first time in open water and think I would have done better if I had started further up in the pack. I finished my 750m in a little over 17 minutes. My 5K was a good time for me (32 minutes), but still slow. I have 5 five more to go!
