We had a very busy weekend---we participated in our first ever sprint triathalon. It was sponsered by the YMCA and consisted of a 1/2 half mile lake swim, a 19 mile (VERY HILLY) bike ride and a 3 mile run. We've been training since eary spring and we actually joined a training group in June that had a run, swim and bike coach. It was a wonderful experience and I really got in good shape. My goal was to finish the entire race in 2 hours and I did it in 1hr and 51 minutes, so I'm thrilled with that time. My hubby finished in 1 hr and 39 minutes. I'm trying to get Christa of motivating mommies to do it with me next year---she claims she doesn't swim in lakes---we'll just see about that!!

I'm SO PROUD of you!! Way to GO!!!
Thanks for the "pressure"...my bet is that you'll be expecting, and it will be my "exit" out of the race. Maybe the "mini marathon"?
AWESOME!! Congrats :)
Oh my gosh Stacey!! How absolutely fabulous and what an accomplishment!! Gee I thought I was doing great just by getting out on the tennis court a couple of times each week - hah! I'm sure you're both very proud and it's well deserved! (fabulous photo of your two as well!!)
