How to finish a triathlon
It made me
Proud, exhilarated
 "A lot of hard work, but I did it!"
How I did it: I trained for almost three months (one day of running, one day of biking, one day of swimming, one day of core--optional, and a Saturday brick, which is two sports combined) with a group of women to complete the Danskin: 75K Swim, 20K Bike, 5K Run Lessons & tips: I have a lot of advice, so I'll go re-read my blogs and come back and post.

Sprint in April/May

Started training about 3-5 hours a week in January. I’ll be ready in April, but I might wait until May if its not warm enough yet in April.

I’ve missed this for 2008; I’ll have to shoot for next year. But I have signed up for the local duathlon sponsored jointly by the running club and bicycle club. Did it once before, and it’s a blast. It’ll be just a few days after I return home from vacation, though – so I’ll probably be pretty pathetic!

I’ve found out the West Lake triathlon is full (and coming too fast, anyway) I did some research into the DeWitt Crossroads triathlon. It’s date has been bumped back to August 2 this year, and I may sign up.

Finally went swimming, which was fun! But it’s all coming back to me now, why I don’t often do the front crawl – I am somewhat claustrophobic, and that stroke just freaks me out if I do it for long. Swam for an hour doing mostly side stroke and back stroke.
I was told by a friend who’s already registered that doing a different stroke is fine though, thankfully. But apparently I need to register soon, since they have a limited number of participants which fills up fast. Hopefully tomorrow.

about which triathlon would be best, from another person at the murder mystery weekend I attended. I also had a co-worker give me her swim pass card with a bunch of unused punches, but I don’t think it’s transferable. I need to start the swim training soon …

who has already registered for the largest local triathlon, which is apparently June 14. Yikes! I’ve not been swimming in years, so I’d better get over and buy a swimming pass soon. Either that, or be fated to do the wussy one in July.

checking into how to buy the pass for swimming at the local junior college pool. Now all I have to do is swallow my pride and actually wear a swimsuit in front of other humans …
Starting to spend more time on the bike, too.

Well I had several TIAs and meningitis last year and continue to have seizures that result in annoying vertigo which make bikes out of the questions, not to mention driving…I am going to have to put a triathlon on the back burner for a year but keep training with the runs and walks and swims
