Where I am

I began my tri endeavor this year and it began with a sprint at Elkhart Lake, WI. I nearly drowned, due to overexcitement, anxiety, & nervousness. However, because my ego is the size of Texas, I had to swim those 400 m. I did and after finishing my first tri it had to be one of the most exciting things I've done. So, I overcame the fear of lake swimming and swam numerous times in different lakes. . .now I'm good to go.

I then did Danskin in Pleasant Prairie, which is very exhilerating to see all different kinds of women with all abilities doing a tri. Great time if you don't mind being surrounded by over 4000 women. . .

I am only doing sprints this year because I also decided to attempt a marathon. Besides a minor overuse IT band irritation, I think I am on the right track.

See you at the next race. . .scheduled is Oshkosh Tri, August 12th.
