A few weeks ago, I completed my first triathlon. It was a sprint distance (1/2 mile swim, 12 mile bike, 5k run). My goal was to finish in under 1:50:00, and I did it at about 1:38:00! It was a lot of fun. Can’t wait to do another.

This has been a productive year for my 43 things list. The latest accomplishment is the adoption of our new dog last week, Luna. She is a golden doodle and I think she might be the cutest dog I’ve ever seen! The best part is that my husband who I had to convince to get one is pretty smitten with her too :)
Got married to my long-term significant other just a week ago. We will be working on the “STAY married” part for the rest of our lives, but both of us are super committed to sticking it out no matter what.
