back in action
I'm back from vacation!! and time to get back to the training. Skiing wasn't as intense as i thought/hoped it would be - although, with the high altitude, walking up just 10 stairs to our apartment was a challenge! good think i'll be doing the tri in Florida, not Alaska.
in the meantime, i'm signed up for the Disney Half-Marathon the weekend after next - i definitely do NOT feel ready. We ran about 4 miles in the beautiful Florida sun (on the ocean...i miss that, and running near the monuments) and i can definitely feel my stamina improving, i was probably just more prepared for the half when i did it Junior year, because i was more focused on solely running, and didn't also have the additional swimming and biking.
speaking of biking.... I GOT MY BIKE!!! Picked it up the Friday before we left. It's HOT - forest green with tan handles. So sweet riding it wearing my new Pearl Izumi biking gear... and super cool spandex pants with a padded butt... that is HOT :-)
PLEASE DONATE TO MY CAUSE!!!

Shari, this is so great that you are doing the triathalon -- congrats!! I'm running the Marine Corps marathon next year, also for the Leukemia and Lymphoma society, I was just training with some friends who ran it last year but with you saying how much you enjoy the TNT, maybe I should sign up for that, too. Glad to hear that you are doing well though -- good luck with the training!! -Julie
