Weekend Wrap Up


An eventful, busy, and fun filled weekend was had! Heres a blow by blow recap.

Saturday:

Started off with a "sweaty brunch" at a friends house in Mount Pleasant in celebration of another friend's birthday which took place over the holidays. We started out with a solid 65 minute trail run through Rock Creek Park. Who knew that you could get this much trail in the heart of D.C.?! Awesome! A few ankles were turned, and some hands went numb, but all in all a great kick-ass work out. We got back, cleaned up a bit, and set up for the brunch. What a spread! Lets see there were bagels, waffles, eggs, fruit salad, smoked salmon, pastries galore, juice, coffee...and then the goods were brought out. By goods, I mean, bloody mary's and Mimosas. Haha, wasn't a big fan of the bloody mary's, as they were a little too spicy for my liking, but damn those Mimosa's were delicious!

Got home in the afternoon, and rested for a bit before the Redskins game. I'm not a big fan really, but my roomate is so I had to be there to give him some razzing when his Skins mess up. The Skins remarkably took the win though, and any razzing had to be kept to a minimum. But I will put in that the Redskins offense set a record for being the least productive in the history of the playoffs. So, we'll see what the can do next week against the Seahawks (Saturday - 3:30pm).

Following the game I went to see a film over in Shirlington. Checked out Match Point, which was directed by Woody Allen. Not a bad film at all, either! Gotta love those british accents! Go see it if you have a chance.

Sunday:

Started off with a mountain bike ride over at Rosaryville State Park in Maryland with some D.C. Tri club folks. This place was sweeeeet! The trails were smooth, fast, and not too technical. How the trails were graded really allowed you to just let go of the brakes and just flow. Damn, mountain biking is sweet. Although, I think I'm going to need a new bike in the near future as I just cannot take my front forks lack of suspension any longer...

Finished off the day with football, and some napping!

Oh it looks like its gonna be a nice mild day tomorrow, so get out there and enjoy it!

Later!
