It's Official!
I registered for the first triathlon of the year. May 10, Tempe SheROX. 1/4 mile swim, 12 mile bike, 3 mile run. I've got 2 "training" races scheduled, too. Mar 29 5K and Apr 17 Splash 'n Dash (swim/short run). These two races serve 2 purposes. The first is just plain practice. The second is to complete a goal I set last year. Before my first triathlon last year, I set a goal to finish 5 races before I turn 35. That happens on Apr 30. In short, by the time I turn 35, I will have accomplished the following (in the last year and a half): Lost 20+ pounds, re-vamped my diet and nutrition, completed 2 sprint distance triathlons, one open-ocean 3/4 mile swim race, 1 5K race, and one swim/run race. I'll also be 1 1/2 weeks away from my 3rd triathlon and 5 1/2 weeks away from my 2nd open-ocean swim. If I can pull this off, I think my 35th will be happy instead of depressing. Proving to yourself that age is really just a number..... priceless.

hey if you want to make a trek our way Hunter and Darin are running a 1/2 marathon on Memorial Day in Laguna Hills. Delaney is going to run the 5k and Dylan the 1/2 mile. Me--I'll just sit back with Lukey and whine about all my feet problems. You are so awesome to be doing all this. Very inspiring.
Holy crap. You are amazing. Thats all I have to say about that.
Congrats on signing up for the races. I'll have to look into it. It would be fun to do another race together. I am also so impressed with how far you have come. Love Ya, Kami
The Potters will be rooting for you!
