Require Help. OBDII Codes, (R

Well driving around today My SES light came on and gave me the following codes, I ran them and this is what it came up with:

P1132 Lack of Upstream Heated Oxygen Sensor Switch - Sensor Indicates Rich - Bank No. 1.

P1152 Lack of Upstream Heated Oxygen Sensor Switch - Sensor Indicates Rich - Bank No. 2.

What does this mean?
Today really the first day in Michigan that I've driven the car when it's been above 80 degrees and Humid. Could that effect it at all?

Does this mean I have a BAD O2 Sensor?

The last time I was at the track, (about 3 weeks ago) I had 1/2 tank of 93 octane, I added 5 gallons of 100 octane turbo blue (LEADED GAS) I figured that 5 gallons wouldn't do any damage and would raise the octane a few points.
Could that small amount have screwed up the O2 sensors 3 weeks later.

Figured it out

called my tuner and figured out the problem.

NOTE TO SELF;
DO NOT RUN TURBO BLUE (LEADED GAS) EVER!

The lead collects at the end of the sensor, and burns out the sensor. He said that my front two are gone and might as well replace the back two because they will be burned out as well.

Even Diluting 5 gallons of Turbo Blue with 12 gallons of leaded gas will screw them up.

Live and learn I guess.

Anyone know if my Cats will be screwed up also???

It's possible they are. Maybe on the 22nd you can see if the top end HP has fallen off?
