pasadena triathlon!

March 8

i completed a triathlon and lived to tell about!

one saturday last month i saw the ironman in hawaii on tv and thought, "that looks like fun". so i found the pasadena triathlon on the internet. it was 3 weeks away - not enough time to chicken out. it was way shorter than the ironman! i don't plan to ever run a marathon! (it doesn't sound "like fun").

i thought this would be a nice test to see if i liked the sport. then perhaps it could grow into something i can do with one of the kids? it also showed them how hard work preparing and endurance was rewarded. (according to the boys, the mug i received is like a trophy).
