Then tonight, again a lovely evening of a promising snowy commute - I decided to lift weights down in Bloomington near work and wait for the rush hour crowd to pack down the roads before venturing out. When I got to the locker room to change, I unpacked my bag and found that I had grabbed two DIFFERENT shoes! What the hell? Luckily I had both a left and a right pair - so I threw them on and got my workout in. I hope nobody looked too carefully at my footwear.
I did meet a nice guy at the gym - he commented on my Liberty Half IM tech shirt and we got to talking triathlons. He had done Madison IM and basically started spouting out tips and suggestions, which I gratefully accepted. He said that Madison was one of the 3 best things to ever happen to him in his life, including Marriage and Kids. He was very interesting to talk to and made me even more excited for next September - hopefully my experience will be as great of one as he described his. In the mean time....hopefully I can grab the right shoes!
