Kerry (seated) poses on the Birthday Saddle. And some other dude makes it even funnier.
Today was another hill climb workout, for me. I went alone this time, and was surprised at how much less motivation I had, without Katie there. I rode almost 17 miles and set a PR on one of the hills, but I still just didn’t feel the urge to attack and hammer like I did when she was there. I guess part of me still likes to show off for my girl!
After I was done pedaling and Katie was done at CrossFit, we headed over to Texas Roadhouse for a surprise birthday party for Kerry, one of the owners of Katie’s gym. It was a lively time with a bunch of cool people, and Kerry seemed genuinely surprised and moved at the turnout. I got to meet a couple of Katie’s CF friends, which was nice, and one of them even bought our table shots of tequila!
I was ravenous by the time we finally got seated and ready to order, so I called for a 16 oz sirloin. It was cooked and seasoned well enough, and in fact was impressive for a national chain. But I’ve grown accustomed to the beef from Innisfree, so I thought it lacked some flavor. After the dinner rolls, margaritas and appetizers, I put down the whole steak and left happily stuffed. More of my post workout meals should follow this pattern!
Yep. That’s a pound of steak.
