How I did it
How to run a marathon
It took me
1 day
It made me
feel awesome

How I did it: I just did.Registered last year for a 21k, but my bib said 42k. I THOUGHT I registered for a 42 and just couldn't remember, and I got the race kit the day before the event so it was too late (or too expensive) to change, so I thought, what the heck, just do it.The longest LSD prior to this was a 10k. Yep, I was totally insane. Read how I did it…

How to complete a sprint triathlon
It took me

TODAY

I did it, and I can cross it off my list!

Things did not go as I expected AT ALL. I thought I was going to suck with my swimming, aced my bike part, and do okay on the running, but I did pretty ok with the swimming, SLOGGEd through my bike ride (major disappointment) and enjoyed my run so much.
Still wished I was faster on the bike. but well, I said I wanted to do it and I did!
