Getting closer

Anna makes me sick...grrr

But in good news I am making progress after some not so delightful workouts.  Today I did 3, 8.5 min miles and 5 miles on the bike on the hill setting!  Getting geared up.  Went to REI yesterday and got a great hiking fleece jacket thing on super sale!  Additionally they had synthetic down jackets that are supposed to be lighter than the real down but even more warm. I talked to the guy for a while about the options and he said he thought it would a good choice given the location and weight limit.  

They also now make this incredible UV ray water purifier--much better than back in my AMIGOS days--it is supposed to be more effective than iodine and take 60 seconds.  I went with my friend who is spending 11 weeks in Burundi, Rwanda, and Madagascar and that is what the REI people recommended.  I don't think that we need this gadget, but it was pretty cool!

Hasta pronto!
