Holy moly! My triathlon is 4 weeks from tomorrow!! I've been working super hard in training, and am really looking forward to it, even though I know it's going to be stinking hard. Some people have innocently asked me if I'm trying to win this, to which I've done my best to just smile, and say a quick, "No." The people who win these things are crazy good athletes, clocking in 30 second swim laps, sub- 3 minute miles on the bike, and a 5-6 minute mile on the run. The only part of that I come close to is a 3 minute mile on my bike when I'm working super hard. Like I said, they're crazy good athletes. Oh, and that's just the women I'm talking about. So, no, I've got no plans to win, or even place. But, knowing the endurance that is required for this and the training that I've put into it, and the journey I've taken to be able to accomplish this, I'll be super happy to finish it... but the competitive part of me says, "Just not at the end of the pack." ;-)

| A friend loaned me an indoor bike trainer to hook my bike up to, so I can ride inside when it's cold or rainy outside. Riding on a stationary bike is not my favorite thing to do, but I'm thankful for it! |
