12.... days!!!

So I'm probably going to participate in a triathlon in 12 days. This is not the one in Fort Collins; it is in Cheyenne on the Air Force base.

My friend M has been trying to convince me to do it for awhile. Then today at spin class my instructor mentioned that she is doing it. I was chatting with her about it for a few minutes and another lady said, "Well if you guys are going to do it, then I will too!!" So at least there will be 3 people I know participating (M plus the 2 from spin class).

Another upside: the run is a little bit shorter... 2.5 miles instead of 3.1. I am so down with that.

M competed in the official sprint triathlon that was held in Cheyenne last month and he says I should see about renting a road bike for the race - he was amazed at his difference in speed with the road bike vs. the mountain bike.

I have found a place that will rent me a road bike for $25/ day so I think I will try it out either this week or next then again for the triathlon.

I have been pretty good about spinning and running, but haven't done any swimming since returning from the cruise. I need to get on that. And apparently I need to do a couple "brick" workouts!!

12 days!!! Eeeek!!!
