Memories

I remember when:

• I used to be able to touch my toes... prior to extremely tight hamstrings
• I used to have clothes that fit my waist and quads proporitionately
• I didn't need 9 + hours of sleep a night
• I had a social life (well... maybe I never had that)
• I didn't have permanent bags under my eyes
• I didn't carry around an hourly alarm clock... my stomach
• I had a wardrobe outside of Cool-Max, Dry-Weave, Wick-Away and Luon

I also remember when:

• We used to bike on West Saanich Road
• We picked up our brand new matching bikes from Fort Street Cycle
• We cheered each other on as we both completed our first Ironman's
• We BBQ-ed Pizza's on hot summer nights
• We played Monopoly in the grass
• We let AR cook us gourmet dinner's while we soaked our feet in Epson salt
• We met at Thetis Lake at dawn and had the entire lake reserved just for us

I am well aware that wetsuits are the most unflattering attire in the history of mankind. I cannot believe I am putting these pictures on the World Wide Web! To top it off, I have a neon orange swim cap on. Yes, I can see that I look like a little boy with oddly oversized legs. I wore that swim cap at the pool the other day, clearly, I have no shame. However, these are some great memories, worth sharing with the whole world.
