Not really a training post

This past Saturday Chris came in town for his first ever trip to Mexico City. I figured he needed to see it before he actually moved here, and so far he loves it. Especially the food. Chris loves tacos, so every meal has pretty much been trying out a new taco. Here are some chicken tacos from last night - I think he took down 7after having already eaten 6 at lunch.



Here we are at Saturday's comida - he had just gotten off the plane and is about three margaritas in. Lunch lasted until about 10PM.

And here are our friends - Erica is my spinning/girl date friend. Her fiance is in the US and so we have lots in common. That is not her fiance though - Tiago was a stand in at lunch.

Hopefully those photos will satisfy my family who keep asking me to post more photos. Now onto the training. Not much has been going on in the running front since Chris has been here and we have had lots to do, but tonight I have a speed workout and spinning class so i am back at it. I also found this great website that has all the running races in Mexico City. I am doing a 10K next weekend (my first ever at altitude). Then the following week I have a run till you puke 4 miler in Houston. It is literally 4 blocks from my mom's house so I can wake up and walk over - I love those races! After that I may actually try to put together a racing plan for 2009 instead of finding races on random websites and signing up for them a week before. Maybe in one of my future posts there will be a plan or at least an attempt at a plan.
Also, I am heading to Hawaii in a week and if I can get the airline to allow me to bring it to Mexico, my tri bike is coming back with me!

YUMMM!! Those tacos look sooo good! I love tacos. They could be listed as a food group for me.

I'm right there with you on St. George. Decisions decisions. I think a few people that I train with are on the band wagon - so I might just jump on it too!
