I have been thinking for a while about doing a triathlon. If you know me it will not surprise you that I signed up for 2. LOL. Why do anything just once. Dive right in and go for it. I have my first sprint tri on Sept. 29th. It is a women's triathlon for the local YMCA. A sprint tri is a 300 meter swim (in a pool), 10 mile bike ride and 3.2 mile run. I think I got this. I am not going for "good" or "fast" just finish!
The second triathlon is just a week later and it is an Olympic Distance Triathlon. This is a bit more, um, crazy. It s 40 total miles; .9 mile swim (open water), 32 mile bike and 6.5 mile run. This race supports the Ulman Cancer Fund for Young Adults. Basically Ulman Fund is a special fund to help people who are in their teens, twenties and thirties to fight cancer.
If you are able, I would love it if you could support me in this. I love swimming, biking and running for something. It keeps me honest and accountable to my own health. Here is the link to my fundraising page: http://halffulltriathlon.com/donations/?kwoAdvocateId=72OSHP2 I'll also have the donation form on this page on the sidebar and in the advocacy section of this blog. Thank you!
