Oh yes, I have already placed an order with Hammer for Endurolyte capsules and Powder. I will never EVER go through that again. I did have a lot of fun with you guys and looking forward to Pumpkinman. Lori did you get in? I hope so.

Agreed Marie, Pumpkinman here we come!

So, Jim, on Saturday after we do the sprint tri in Maine for Pumpkinman, we MUST fuel and hydrate (WITH SALT) so we can have a good ride home on Sunday.

It was quite the wild ride….The pink crocs, they had princess jibbitz too – my 4 year old keeps jamming them on there. MMM – Dr. Burke! It’s not just a ride, it’s an adventure, that’s for sure. And many more to come!

What a weekend it was….driving Mr. and Ms. Daisy! I’m working on the lyrics, glad to have been reminded about the pink crocks! Jim, we are very jealous, cause we know hotty Dr. Burke was looking at your sweet >>> in the spandex….especially as you strolled across the room wearing the pink crocks!

I almost forgot. I had to wear Marie’s hot pink crocks to the bathroom. That looked so good with my black spandex and IV pole in tow.

Now Jim, I DID feed you pretzels at the Berkley stop. I did NOT twist your arm to keep going.

Seriously, I feel horrible that I let you continue. I just figured you were as hot as I was, I didn’t realize you had stopped drinking!

I talked to Jason about our ride and he thinks we might have put ourselves in a diluted spot with not enough electrolytes and salt when we kept stopping and buying regular gatorade and water. Next time, we need to add salt to the gatorade. That’s why about 10 miles after we ate the pretzels I started feeling good again. You must not have eaten enough of them.

I strongly suggest you take salt tablets with you on any long rides. You were seriously crystalizing!

Also, I did not know you took sudafed and thought you were better because JIM DIDN’T TELL ME you were still taking it!

OK enough, yelling at Jim, hopefully he learned his lesson. And the lesson is NOT, “don’t ride with Diane again” it is “hydrate and fuel PRIOR to feeling the need to”

Now, we just await the lovely pictures that Lorie too LOL And, BTW, Dr. Burke IS quite the hottie! We also need to finish our song… it definitely sounds better than it looks on paper LOL
We have a few versus…

< >

…some people say that there’s a woman to blame… but I know… it’s my own damn fault.

…wasting away in cape cod looking for my lost sugar and salt….
