Oh my God – Even the GOVERNMENT is faster than me!!

Have you joined my incredibly non-annoying, once-in-a-while email newsletter?

One week ago today, I mailed my U.S. Passport off for renewal. I’m expecting three months, minimum, only because I put “expedited service” all over it and paid extra.

Yesterday, I ran my first 5k since injury one and injury two.

And I was quite happy with my results, considering!

Going with that “it’s a gorgeous day out finally, and it’s time to get back in shape and start training for all the things I’m doing this season,” feeling, I got on my bike for the first time today in… I think in forever. The goal was a baseline lap around Central Park.

As I’m walking my bike out to get a quick ride in during lunch, my doorman tells me a FedEx has arrived. Shock of beyond shocks, it’s my Passport.

It took one week.

My ride around the 6.2 mile Central Park loop as a baseline ride, took 20 minutes, 12 seconds.

If you average it out, the Government works faster than I currently ride.

That scares the crap out of me.

So, I’ve got my work cut out for me. I’d like to get from an 8:30 running mile to a 7:20 running mile, and a 20:12 10k bike to a 15:00 10k bike.

Fortunately, I’ve got a bunch of months to do it.

5% pleasure, 50% pain…

    Anytime you are active in social media someone will always try to borrow your audience. What’s a retweet on twitter? Someone is asking to borrow your audience. That goes the same on facebook when you share a link. Think before you share because you maybe losing an audience to someone else if they always see that you are retweeting someone or sharing particular links on facebook.
