tired legs

Okay...so my legs are letting me know that I did all that biking and running on the weekend. Yep. They are tired!! Last night my little guy was so beat from running around outside yesterday that he kept tripping over his own feet. I said, "I know how you feel buddy!!" We were quite the pair. And then at soccer, the awesome new coach says about 5 minutes in "Okay parents!! We need your help for some drills!" That's right, I RAN around a soccer field for about half an hour as well!! In SANDALS!! I don't know anything about soccer but it was fun. And kids listen to everything you tell them. Before we left the house for soccer, my 5 year old says "Mom, I need to drink and eat lots to keep up my energy for soccer today!!" I am always telling him we need to be eating and drinking the right stuff...I never think he is hearing me, but apparently so.
On the go this week, a hard bike ride tomorrow. Will have to be in the early morning as we have another soccer game tomorrow night. A swim on Wednesday and a friggin hard run on Thursday. The next 3 weeks are friggin hell...HELL!! But this is when it all counts so will be sure to get it done.
