Someone, who happens to read this blog and live in my town, asked me if I’d do a triathlon (a rookie tri, not even a full sprint distance) at the start of May.
After my initial reason for saying “no”, and then his offer to pay the entrance fee, I said if he’d do it then I’d do it.
Now I’m terribly out of shape and weigh far too much (part of that is the many meds I take, part is feeding Keegan and myself on $200 a month, and part because I haven’t been seriously exercising regularly).
But.. I could struggle through it I think.
So I’m waiting for an answer about whether he’s going to do it or not….
waiting….
still waiting…
twiddling thumbs…
falling asleep…

/ February 27, 2012Wow, once you find out for sure if your in..you’ll have to give more details on what it entails. I couldn’t ever do that. A Walk-A-Thon..Yes. A Triath-A–Lon? Heck No.

It’s a bit less than a sprint distance tri. 300 meter swim, 11.2 mile cycle, and 2 mile run.
A standard sprint distance is 500 meter swim, 12 mile cycle, and 3.1 mile run.
