Wedding Fun

This week. I would like to race MuleX and the state championship. I need to be there both days. MuleX might be hard if we don't have enough help. Going form 8000 ft to 5000 might be beneficial. Thursday we are having a meeting at 7:30 at our house. I can go swim, but will have to cut it short. Friday might be really busy organizing for the race. I think that I should not actually get back to a good schedule until next Monday.


The wedding weekend was pretty amazing. Jenny and Aaron are one lucky and beautiful couple. I am so glad they got married. We had a great weekend. The bike ride that they all did on Friday and Erik and I hiked was really fun. We started at 10,000 ft at the ski hill and climbed up to Deception Peak at 12,000 ft. Gorgeous. Then they rode down and we ran down. Erik beat them all down on his feet. Pretty funny. They are all a different crowd of bikers than we are used to. Full suspension heavy bikes, no helmets on the way up, elbow guards on the way down. I think Erik would have schooled them on his rigid.

The wedding day was a blast, beautiful, and very precious. Had a great time and was about to fall over from being tired at 9:30. Emotionally tiring and way too much small talk. Exhausting.

Sunday was another day of socializing. I was done after that. Not into small talk anymore. Went to the pool to stick my head in the water and ended up chatting with a guy who was Able and Audrey's (Aaron's grandpa) housekeepers lady. Funny. Small world. We then went to a place called Bandalier. It is where the Pueblo lived in houses on the cliff wall. It was really cool. Erik and I ran the trail to try and get some workout it.

On Monday Erik and I drove over to Taos and climbed the tallest peak in New Mexico. I chuckled because you said to get out in the boonies and we walked right into wilderness about 100 yards into the hike. I think the hike was only about 3.5 miles one way, but we climbed from ~10,000 ft to 13,000 ft. It was gorgeous but sooo frickin cold on top. This sweatshirt thing I bought at Ironman is windproof, I learned. Way more practical than I thought. We ate dinner that this great place in Taos. Good day. Nice to spend some time with my husband.

Tuesday
Gfit and a 30 minute run. I didn't get the swim in. Just didn't work. Gfit was hard. Flew home. Exactly opposite weather in Bozeman than Santa Fe. Really like it down there.

Wednesday- Back in Bozeman. Transitioning from vacation to work is pretty hard. Especially with MuleX on Saturday. Life will be hectic for another few days.
