i was in new orleans during the last week of december where i volunteered with an organization to help with post-hurricane katrina home rebuilding efforts. myself and 16 others bascially gutted a house down to the frame/studs so that the owner could finally return and start rebuilding their home. i was a little concerned about missing the triathlon team trainings during this time plus the snow the week before slightly derailed my workouts. but when we started moving furniture, going up and down stairs to haul debris, and hammering away at dry wall/plaster/tile for days, i realized i got my workout for the week and then some!
on another note, i'm amazed at how the weather has been cooperating, for the most part, during our trainings. i just got back from our monday night workout at green lake. it didn't rain at all and it was a bearable 45 degrees which is just cold enough to make you want to run to get warm :)
