Dedication to the Cause

Here's a sure sign of dedication for you.

I went to the hairdresser today for the first time since the beginning of September.  Money's been a little tight as has time and the little money and time I have had, I've pretty much dedicated to my triathlon....er.....um.....career? (ok, the word career might be a little strong)

Anyhooo.....

So, in my attempts to be fitter, faster, stronger, better, I've neglected my aesthetics.  Which might also explain the lack of suitors on the the dating side of things.  hmmmm..... food for thought.  Perhaps guys prefer "pretty" triathletes.  Whatever.

So I finally made it to the hairdresser today.  After having the ratty ends chopped, the hairdresser finished it off with some straightening iron action.

Curls.

Nice  Curls !

It kinda looked something like this (I have no idea who this person is, I pinched it off the net) :

My hairdresser asked if I was going out and I replied "yep, I'm going to a party".  And so she gave me new hair and I walked out of the hairdresser (in my riding knicks, runners and sweaty jersey - what?  I'd just done a brick session) with bouncy, wavey, shiney, new hairs


I looked pretty (from the neck up)

The Delima : 


I have, on my training program a swim set this afternoon at 2pm.

Shit.

Do I:

a) skip the swim session and keep my good hair?  After all, there might be a boy at the party who wants to meet a 'pretty' triathlete.

or

b) go for the swim session because I'm a triathlete (albeit not as pretty without the hair).  And just do the best I can with whats left of my hair once its been stripped of all bounce and shiny-ness after spending an hour in chlorine????

What to do?  What to DO!!??





I'm going for Option B.

Now that's dedication.......
