Let's see - my daughter, in her infinite 20 year old wisdom decided to start smoking. My youngest told her he would do a triathlon with her if she would stop smoking! So, in my infinite 51 year old wisdom, I said, you know that would be a blast! So, I have decided to join in on the triathlon! Our goal triathlon date is sometime this winter. The funny thing is that I don't run!!!!!! So, I started training the week we were at OBX - walked and biked. The swimming thing will come as soon as I find time to get in the swimming pool.
In the meantime, there is a half marathon that occurs in Atlanta in November, around Thanksgiving - maybe it won't be so freaking hot then! So, I have decided to set that as my first goal - now how to go about that!? I decided that I would spend the month of August walking - I've been home from the beach for two days and haven't walked yet! Great start, huh. There is just something about getting out at 6:30 in the morning at the beach and going for a walk - no cars, very few people - I don't use music, I just enjoy the morning sounds of the beach. However, I hate walking at home - even early there are so many damn cars and people...constant noise. Maybe I need to use my headphones - as my daughter says a "little Bono in her ear and she's a happy girl."
So, I'm back to square one but at least I did bike on Monday and I am biking today - maybe I will swim this afternoon...
Wish me luck.
