Well, on this first day of summer, I did something that now I'm going to be held accountable for... I signed up for my 2nd Triathlon!!! I did my first triathlon in 2010, i had never really ridden a road bike, I couldn't run to save my life, and I hadn't swam really since high school. Now, 3 years later, I am a cyclist, still can't run to save my life, and I can swim so much better! Training for my first triathlon is what got me started in cycling. I LOVE IT!!!
So, I signed up for the Music City Triathlon on July 28th. It's a 400 yard swim, 12 mile bike and 5K. I'm currently dealing with a quad injury, but I know I'll be able train for this (even though it's 5 weeks away)... really, the only part that worries me is the 5K... I know that my partner in crime Annie, will give me tips and tricks for running, now that she's a half-marathon runner!
My first triathlon, I didn't have a goal for time.... I just wanted to finish! and I finished in 2:16... This time, I do have a timeframe I'd like to finish in, and I think I can do it... of course I'll blog about it after the fact.
So, some of my posts over the next few weeks will be focused on training for this triathlon..
Never done one before? you should TRI!!!! (see what I did there?)
