My Motto

My motto: Life shouldn't be easy. Challenge yourself. Go out and do something HARD! Push yourself out of your ordinary boundaries, and stretch your abilities to your wildest imaginings.

Two Days..

Only two days to go until we try doing our first sprint triathlon. We had an easy workout this morning, just 5 miles on the bike and a 2 mile run. Jenny is going to leave me in the dust on the run portion of it as she is all about running the 5k in 24 minutes (she can actually run it in like 20 or 21 but she's giving herself a few minutes since she'll be doing this in the third leg of the tri). Me, on the other hand, not being a runner until this year, will be glad to finish the 5K in under 30 minutes and am hoping for 28 minutes. We'll see... I'm now thinking, with two days to go, that I should have sucked it up and bought a new bike. I've been borrowing my moms or my nephews as I don't even own a bike. But I didn't want to put the money in until I new if I would even be able to drag myself across the finish line, since they are anything but cheap. Now, I wish I would have just to save me a little energy on the bike portion.

Oh well, to late to think about that now. I just have to make it through the seaweed and follow my sister across the finish line... Then, it's on to Summerfest where, gasp, I might actually attempt the 10k...
