Interesting day yesterday. So i headed down to Ala moana beach park at 8am yesterday to get in a nice saltwater swim in before an epic bike ride. The swim was good other than my feggin goggles fogging up after 3 seconds of swimming. Then it was off to ride up tantalus. Tantalus is this giant road that goes up one ridge for 2000 ft and crosses over to another ridge and comes back down. Really steep sections with endless climbs. It takes about 30 minutes to climb and 10 min to decend. I did this twice and my legs are fried! then it was the 30km treck home. The ride was great and it was nice to have the temperature drop5-6 degrees at the top. Some sections there are eucalyptus trees that give off a super potent smell that is really nice. today is a run. Its super hot again here as the Kona winds are back and advisories to stay inside are in effect.....kinda like a smoggy day in Toronto.
thats all for now.

Hey There:
I've enjoyed reading your blog & seeing the photos.
Woke up this morning and it was 7 degrees ... Can you imagine having to train in our lake (rather than the ocean)!!!
Not much new at this end. Moved Meg up to Ottawa on Friday. Now I can spend some much needed time working on setting up our property for summer.
Take care, we miss you, say hi to Leslie, Jamie & Jon. Brenda.
