I Must Be Crazy

...because I signed up for a triathlon today.

I remember a few years ago I heard about a triathlon in Grand Haven.  I thought, wow, that's cool.  I wish I could do that.  I never, ever, in a MILLION years thought that I would be able to participate in triathlon and come out alive.  Well my friends, Sunday, July 8 is the day.  I will splash into the water and swim .5km, I will pedal as hard as I can for 20km, and run as fast as I can for 5km.  And hopefully, hopefully, I don't finish last.  :)


So far the training seems to be going pretty well.  I ran my first four miles yesterady without stopping to walk in 47:00.  I was amazed that I was able to do it.  The biking is also going well despite not having the ultimate bike I would like to have.  And swimming seems to be going okay, we will see what happens when it gets warmer outside and I can practice in the lake instead of in the pool.

7 weeks to go!
