What's that got to do with being a TriSupporter, you ask. Well, it doesn't exactly except that when Punxsutawney Philwas seeing his shadow, Rianman was up and at the gym getting his fitness on. Today was the start of his official training season. His alarm was set for 5...something (I wasn't up) and he was gone while it was still dark. He has been sleeping till 7 am for the last 2 to 3 months and this, post-Superbowl morning, he was up before dawn. Rianman did not see his shadow.
This means:
- two workouts a day most days for the next 6 or 7 months
- the baby bottle dryer has to come out from hiding and take up space even though we are child-free
- those damned water bottles filling up my sink
- powered mixes will dust my black granite countertops
- sweaty Road IDs and FuelBelts will be left to dry on those said countertops
- eating dinner alone most nights
- the water bill going up to accomodate all the cycles of laundry
- the numerous road trips to races staying in fairly crappy hotels
- my car, which is the Trimobile, will see more empty, sticky gel wrappers
I could go one but I think you get the idea and if you are a TriSupporter you could probably add to the list.
So, Happy Groundhog Day. I hear we've got 6 more weeks of winter. Great! That means salty, wet sneakers drying in the kitchen.
