    heya expert, just wanted to say sorry if I put you off in any way. I’m interested in nutrition so that’s why I was curious what you had to say about the alcohol/milk discussion I linked you to.

    I also like how you post your swim workout details; gives me ideas of workouts to do if I show up when the group isn’t there.

    anywhoo, again sorry if I said something dumb; have an awesome 13.1!

    Hello Dave,
    No need to be sorry, I was not offended in any way! Did I come across that way??I hope that I didn’t come across that way, didn’t mean to sound mad or anything. I always find other people’s opinions on nutrition/training interesting and sometimes amusing! I don’t always take the time to read a lot of blogs, so if you see something amusing/interesting re: nutriton, feel free to forward to me for comment, etc.
    Wow, I really didn’t think that anyone read my swim workouts, but I’ll keep posting if I know that at least you are using them. After this half marathon, I will be swimming more, so there will be more workouts.
    Happy Monday & Have a great week!
