Narcissistic Interview

Before we start this interview, I wanted to thank everyone who commented or emailed me. It meant so much to me. Every thumbs up felt like a virtual high five! A Sincere Thank You!

So, now what you have a big medal and you're too much of a big shot to post?
--No, not at all I was letting the race report “sit” as Nanc would say, for a while and make sure everyone on the World Wide Web has had a chance to read it.

What have you been doing to recover?
--I take morning and afternoon walks mixed in with some chillaxing recumbent bike cycling. I also have scrubbed every nook and cranny of the house that I have neglected while training. I took in a musical, "The Drowsy Chaperone" with blog buddies, Timmy & MOF. I did one more ice bath, but now am doing the warm bath with Epsom salts. In a fair trade agreement of me not spending money on a massage, Shane throws in a complimentary massage every evening with the stick and an anti-inflammatory concoction I got from my Dr. Mc Dreamy.
*Editors Note: this stick, Marcy

When will you run again?
--I plan on a spin class this weekend with low resistance and a swim. I am hoping for a run on Memorial Day pending that it feels decent.

Why are you being such a “pussy” with the recovery? There are runners who can run a ½ every other weekend?
--Who are you calling a pussy, biatch?!
Seriously, the legs were feeling a little tingey(is that a word) during taper, and I want to be sure after pushing myself that the legs are 100%. I don’t want to have to wear that sexy orthopedic boot that is in my closet for 6 weeks. It just does not go well with my summer wardrobe.

On the video you posted when you were crossing the finish line, did you add a sound byte of crowd cheering ?
--No, as much as I would like to say that all those people were cheering for my fat ass to get to the finish line. It was actually the first place women’s hand wheel division marathon winner coming in right next to me.
Exhibit A below:


So, when are you going to stop being a little bitch and do the full marathon?
--Whoa, what is your problem lady? I am out of here you slut! I don’t have to put up with this smart ass ho talking to me like that. Let me tell you something Ms. Barbara Walters home wrecker… (Viv begins to get up, but the producers coax her into finishing the interview with a nice cup of Starbucks) no wonder Star couldn't stand your old ass.
---OK to answer your question you nagging hag. I am going to keep getting my feet wet so to speak with a few more ½’s while I continue loosing weight. I am thinking, San Antonio, Houston, and ideally Surf City, the eye candy would be a sweet 13.1 oops, I mean the surfboard medal would be sweet! I would just feel more umm..”comfortable” doing the marathon thinner. So, to answer your question full marathon next year possibly taking up Maria on her running Cleveland side by side, at my pace of course.

What is your top played jam on the iPod right now?
--“Mean to You” by Rocket

Do you have any goals or aspirations for the rest of the year you would like to share?
--I would like to continue my weight loss, and lose another 45 pounds or so. Make a dedicated effort to keep up with strength training even when tri training is consuming all of my free time. I’d like to do an Olympic distance triathlon at the end of this tri season. Also, at years end I would like to get my spin instructor certification, I really enjoy spinning and would love to motivate others by giving them a kick ass class.

Thanks for reading through my narcissistic interview, LOL!
Have a fabulous holiday weekend! Get out there, and enjoy it!!
