This week I decided to take it easy on myself. Let's call it a recovery week from training. I still don't know what I'm training for by the way.  As you well know the heat and humidity has been stifling over the last month. I took it inside to the treadmill for the first time in a long while. Ohhh, it was so nice! The air temp was around 75 and a slight breeze(the fan) blowing in my face. What a refief it was. I should do this more often. I have heard stories of people training for marathons on treadmills exclusively. For me it was a nice change and I think I'll be back again in a few weeks.

No, we will never see another Tiger Woods, Lance Armstrong or even a Michael Jordan.  Last night I stayed up way past my bedtime to watch the final of the men's 4X100 freestyle relay in Bejing(especially after some earlier smack talking going on by another team). Put this one down. Add it to your favorites.

I was so jacked up after watching this! We may never witness another performance like this in our lifetime. Wow!
I love the Olympics!
