We talked for a bit about what you do and I mentioned that I changed my core strength set with the run team based on how you killed us that day in Pleasanton. :-P Anyway, I was wondering if I could pick your brain on that a bit sometime. It looks like I'll be back on the Ironteam next season and my role will be close to what I was doing on the run team. Runners and Ironteamers are two different animals so I'd love to get you take on what works best with the hard core set. Let me know what you think! Chris cbarber67@gmail.com Elaine,

Whew, I guess so! The next thing I know I look her up and she's running triathlons all over the place and training like the bionic woman! I'm VERY HAPPY for you Maritza that you now realize ("I'm so cute") what we've all been saying all along. I'm sorry you had to run, swim and bike 20,000 miles to come to that place! Maybe a spa package at Nordstrom might have been an easier way to do it, but hey, knock yourself out! I don't like anyone messin' with my own Private Idaho either, so I won't mess with yours! Let me guess... you warm down with a nice couple hours on a stretch rack?? Or maybe a mellow sun tanning on a bed of hot coals??? I'm just giving you a hard time! You Triathlon people are impressive as hell! I take a bow to all of you! Who knows, maybe some day I'll be so ambitious?? I finally decided after 46 years of constant flagrant abuse of my body that it may just be time for me to finally change my ways. I actually go to the gym now everyday before work. (I'm up to 5 miles on the elliptical machine at level 5 resistance and I can whip out 40 to 50 pushups with relative ease. That's up from 2 to 3 when I started.) Of course, it's the eating that's the most difficult part for me. I know that if I get that under control, the rest will have been of little value. So I'm working on that too. He estado trabajando más o menos en soporte técnico bilingüe desde que abandoné mi posición con la ciudad de SF (DSH) en 1999, incluyendo por lo menos 3 años en soporte alemán. Soy MUCHO más pobre hoy día pero soy mucho más feliz tambien. Los clientes en SF DSH siempre me complimentaron porque los trataba siempre lo mejor que podía. Desafortunademente, para poder hacer eso, tenía que hacer decisiones que siempre cayeron en conflicto con lo que necesitaba la Admin. Puesto que ellos sean aquellos que deciden mi futuro y bienestar financieramente y profesionalmente, nunca hubiera alcanzado un nivel de cualquier forma de éxito allí. Para estar en cualquier situación dónde todos los demás siempre se quejen de ti no haga mucho divertido. Fue tiempo que irme. Tambien requerría esa posición un nivel de organización bastante extremo que simplemente no tengo. Siendo bipolar no me ayudó tampoco. Con computadoras el hecho de que tengo que mirar a la pantalla del monitor me ayuda enfocarme mucho más facilmente y mis otros talentos de computadora me dejan organizarme bien en línea. Es totalmente diferente. I'm very happy for you Maritza! Keep up the great work! I'll speak for myself when I say that I always knew you were a gem, a superhuman among us mere mortals. I still think a simple mudbath would have ... ☺ Thought I’d look up an old coworker who I once heard say, “I just LOVE to run!”
