Info on the bottom of the screen

Hey Guys, there is some great Triathlon info for beginners at the bottom of the blog page. It'll give you tips on all events. I am currently trying to acquire a wetsuit (specifically for swimming) and some plus size biking/running gear (Junonia, ProMotion, Danskin). These are big purchases and I wouldn't recommend buying until you are SURE you want to Tri and Tri again every year.
I also found out what that deoderant looking stuff was that the ladies were rubbing all over themselves at the triathlon.....IT'S ANTICHAFFING stuff! Holy smokes did I have a bad chaffing rash from the bike on my last tri. I couldn't walk straight for a week! So if you're interested it's called BODYGLIDE. You can find it in most sporting stores.
This year I've decided to do the Danskin Triathlon in Seattle. It's an all women event benefitting Breast Cancer research. I spoke with one of last year's participants and from the sounds of it IT'S AWESOME. If you would like to do this Tri with me then be aware that registration fills up fast. Once registration opens up you it will be filled up that day or the next because lots of women like to do this one. There's a link at the bottom of this page. Be aware also that this Tri is on a Sunday.
I haven't gone into an official gym to workout BUT I have been more active with the kids and dog. I've been going on more walks and playing more outside and doing yard work. It's a step up for me. I'm slowly getting back into the active lifestyle again. By next week I should be ready for our mini tri.
Keep in touch ladies. Let me know your struggles and victories!
You guys keep me inspired.

How is Everyone Doing?

Okay Ladies this year it's going to take a lot more to get me off the couch! I can't believe how incredibly UNMOTIVATED I am at this point. I can't seem to snap out of it either. Any tips?

Let's Get It Started!

Welcome Ladies, here we go onto a new year and some new goals for running our triathlons! I'm so glad you can join me. Let's keep a blog so we can support each other in good times and bad throughout our training. Feel free to leave your comments and add new subjects.
