First Blog, 2008!!

Happy new year, ladies!! HP02 thought she would pen the innagural blog entry for the new year, because she is rearing to get back on the wagon! January is bringing a whole new lease on life; 3 weeks of vacation in December and the ending of a dead end job (military industrial complex-employed no more!) means that HP02 is upwardly mobile, relaxed and refreshed, and ready to ROCK!
After Ocho’s LOVELY wedding in Tucson, HP02 drove down to Mexico with the only people she could recruit crazy enough to be spontaneous around the holidays: her parents. Some highlights from Mexico:

Hiking and rock climbing up a desert mountain with the craziest dude I know – my Pop. We found skulls, snakes skin, and a lion’s den. Yikes!











Every morning it was yoga on the roof and then breakfast under the palapa with a glass of fresh squeezed orange juice (just off the tree).



Jet skiing, sea kayaking, beach-combing, 4 wheeling in the desert, I'm telling you girls it is the perfect venue for an international HotPants cross training expidition!

As for training in 2008, HP02 is ready to hit the yoga circuit, and the pool. It is all about scheduled activites for this girl. Weekend bikerides and runs are a necessity, and as for events this year, if HP02 cant participate in the Bermuda Olympic tri going down in November, Cape Cod with suffice as an alternative. Thats right, destination triathlon! Yihaw!
