Snow, Sisters, and Sales (and training begins)

I don't even know how to describe this weekend. Cold, exhausting, and exciting pretty much sum it up. It started on Thursday when we got our biggest snow of the year. I'm not sure how much we ended up with, but it came up to my knees. And it took me an hour to get home from work, when it usually takes me 15 minutes! Just when you think it's Spring. The picture below is of the bikes in front of my apartment building. This weekend was also the 9th annual Deals on Wheels tent sale at Bicycle Village. And I was a cashier for the event. The sale last all day Saturday Sunday down in Boulder. There were some great deals on bikes and apparel. The only bad thing was we were in a tent which was a wind tunnel and about 15 degrees cooler than it was outside.

Also this weekend, I got to spend Saturday night with my sister!! It was such a huge surprise but so great to see her for a little bit! She was in Oklahoma visiting family and her connecting flight back to San Diego was cancelled. So I got to spend the night with her! I'll take a short visit over no visit any day.

And today is the start of my training program for the Bolder Boulder. I have the goal of breaking an hour this year. Last year I came so close...1:06. I have exactly 55 days and 20 hours to get ready!
