Here I Go Again....

I've signed up for a Triathlon...again.

Last year I signed up and trained regularly for a Tri in Glenview. The event was in July and I was super motivated....then I went to Europe. I did not train for 14 days and that really put me in the whole and I totally lost all motivation.

I have started to appreciate and actually enjoy running...FINALLY! I am lucky enough to have a lap pool in my backyard and biking has always been an enjoyable sport for me.

This triathlon will be in December, two days after my 30th birthday. The tri will also be in Anthem, AZ. I know the event is 7 months away, but that is plenty of time for me to work on my swimming and transition steps. Also, it gives plenty of time to plan a badass birthday party after the triathlon...so mark your calenders.

Here is the link to the event :

I will be posting my training highs and lows on here to help keep me motivated.

Stay tuned!!!

We will totally come and watch you! I am sure the more support you get the better!

Can't wait to hear how the training goes. I wanted to do the PF Change's Half Marathon a couple of years ago, but threw my knee out in the process (had knee surgery in high school and never recovered right I don't think). Since then, I have been a weeny!

GOOD LUCK!
