New Training Partner
I have been putting off picking a race to do this year...I am still not decided on what I want to do. However I did tell Betsy I would train with her to do a half ironman. She says she needs a training partner, so I will train as if I were doing the race...but I can't do them because of conflicts. I started training here in California and I have the worst training partner. I know sometimes I can be a little overbearing while training and maybe my idea of fun isn't so fun for others...and sure maybe I have had some training partners who have thrown up during rides, or swear like a sailors during runs, or swim incredibly fast so that the snapping turtle in the lake won't bite their toes off...but never have I had a training partner cry on me. Shesh. Every time I go out and train with Fisher he always cries...it's killing me I can barely get a good session in with him. I run with him in the Chariot and like 20 minutes into it he is done and wants to get out...so then I have the Baby Bjorn so I can walk with him back to the house. There is not a lot I can do at the point. So pretty much I have been doing nothing but leg workouts...because all I can do is lunges and squats and stuff with the little tyke in the carriers. So yeah training is going to be a little trickier then in previous years...but it will be worth it.

can't i be your training partner?
I had to laugh...Milo still hasn't grown out of his stroller hating and he is 3 and a half. I have been bribing him to sit in the stroller while I go with a dvd player and that doesn't work for long.
He is a cute, little partner though - maybe he'll grow in to you. =)
I know what you mean, babies these days are so week. I guess it is our job to toughen them up. Maybe you need to get him back up here in Logan, nothing like a good long winter to put some grit into you. Well I guess we'll see you when we see you. Hope he is better at driving then riding in a chariot.
If you want the little urchin to get tough, send him to school with Skillz that Killz next semester. If the Navy doesn't make that boy hard, then certainly being with Skillz 24/7 will.
