as in my first triathalon! my friend's adrianna & darcy, whom i used to work with at starbucks, pitched the idea to me 2 (yes only 2!) weeks ago. so i thought sure sounds fun... & lets be honest i had a few drinks when they asked me. with only 2 weeks to train, which i spent just running & attempting the swim once along with a 3 mile bike ride we went for it! (let me just say that i had not even been on a bike since i was oh, maybe 7?). we were SO nervous the morning of the event (& i was actually sick with a stomach bug that i thought at first was just nerves). jeff & mason suprised me by showing up at 8 & playing paparzzi- which i loved! since it was our first time we just did the "sprint" which was a .3 mile swim, 12 mile bike, and 3 mile run. i did totally fine on the swim & run but SUCKED at riding the bike! i could NOT figure out the gears (oh oops i guess you are not supposed to go up hill in a hard gear- my bad). regardless it was our goal to complete the tri in under 2 hours & we all did! my final time was 1 hr 54 min! i am so proud of us and we all have the "triathalon bug" now! can't wait for more!
pics & video to come soon...
