Adventures in Life

Saturday, March 19, 2005

Ok, I know it's been two weeks since I updated this page with training notes. I'M SO SORRY! Training and life have kept me quite busy. For those who have kept checking the site, thanks! TODAY...I did my FIRST 10K run!!! With Flynn (one of the coaches) by my side most of the time and a few songs in my head, I made it! And I'm still walking. I have to admit I have lost track of all the training I've done. I've been doing so much, it's hard to keep track! So, I'll be taking the Training Update part off the web site, but I promise to keep you posted on the different goals I reach, like running 10K today. (I'm not at all excited about that accomplishment. :) )

The other fun exciting stuff...THE PURPLE BRACELETS ARE HERE!!!!! They are $1 each and if you don't live near me, I'll send you one or how ever many you would like. Send me an email or give me a call.

We're almost to the goal! YIPPEE! The exciting part is last weekend, we went over the minimum amount I needed to raise to compete in the triathlon. I'm racing on the 22nd and you all are a part of it with me! For Quinn and my family, THANKS!!! --Have an EXCELLENT week! j:)

Swimming, Swimming and more Swimming...

Hello friends. Yes, it's been a week since I updated anything. It's been busy and I've been swimming a TON, or was that swallowing a ton of water? I think I've reached that point in training where I feel like I've hit a wall and it's going to take several HUGE pushes to get me through this wall and beyond to the distances I need reach. Monday night's swim with the team and IndySwimFit was helpful to give me a good push on swimming. I'm hoping tomorrow's team bike and run will help me break down some other pieces of this ugly wall. The good news is my health is pretty good. Just tired. ( hmmm....I wonder why.)
