As race day looms it's ugly head I was looking forward to our final training ride. Sholeh & I had planned to do it on the Alameda Creek Trail at 5am today. However, during the 6 mile run at Planet Fitness, the poor man's gym in Hayward, (which is a whole blog in itself - one quote overheard " the equipment in Santa Rita, our local penitentiary, is way better than here") she cancelled as gainfulemployment trumped our sweat fest, had to wine and dine the company vendors from China. So I awake and trundle into the kitchen trusted Pug attached to heel, how can she go from a full snore to wide awake and attached I have no idea. The clock shows 3:30am a tad early! On the way back to bed I see a figure sleeping in the guest room and assume it's Sholeh. Joy I won't have a lonely ride ahead of me at 5:30. At the right time I get up, having not slept, Pug at heel, make coffee and go in to tell Sholeh it's time to get up, only to find that the person is Shapour (husband). He can't stand the snoring Pug so routinely moves during the night. Sadness again until I check my texts and find one from Sholeh saying we are at $480! Gaining renewed energy and vigor I boldly exit. Upon my return at 8:30 Shapour is in his van leaving for our shop, "You look like a disaster, where have you been?" Well...
