It wasn't pretty, but this year I completed my first triathlon along with my super-duper, awesome neighborhood friends. I signed up last fall after several of the ladies did it for the first time figuring that it would be a good motivator to get me back into shape. I really thought then that I would average a little more sleep by the next summer. By about April, when I still wasn't sleeping more than 4 hours a night, I gave myself a "Pass" and decided to just focus on completion.
It was a super early morning...
Super-scary (well for me, anyway) 1/2 mile swim in Lake Washington,
12 mile bike ride, on my new bike over I-90 and back,
And a 3.2 mile run to finish up the course
After mild stress about it all summer, it felt AMAZING to be done and who knows... I may be up for trying to doing again next year!
