My friend Marisa was "all a buzz" as Nora put it, talking about doing a triathlon. Well, it turns out she was not only enthusiastic, but persuasive as well- and I signed up!!! I was very hesitant at first, since Abbie was only like 6 weeks old when Marisa starting talking about it. I had all these excuses- I just had a baby, I don't have enough time to train, I don't want to lose my milk, etc. Well, Marisa was also persistent. She showed me the training schedule, and I thought, I can totally do this! Then Nora signed up, and my resistance was over. I couldn't handle both of them putting the pressure on me!!
We're doing the Jordanelle Triathlon on August 23. We're doing the "sprint" which is:
- .75 k swim
- 13 mile bike
- 5 k run
Now I just need to buy a bike. . . .

It's going to be so great!!!
I really admire you! I have really started hitting it hard with working out... and all of lifes issues that come with it! I have always wanted to be into working out.. I went and did a mile and a half walk/run! I just about died... so hopefully I can build up!
You will do awesome!
Fun Fun Fun! I'm totally inspired just because Abbie is so young still. Stuart was my excuse at first too but he's almost one.
Your awesome!!!
How fun and good luck! Your brave.
Good for you, that's awesome! I don't know what kind of bike you need, but you can always borrow mine. :-)
Good luck, I'm a little jealous that you'll be doing a triatlon before I do, but what can I do?
This is so cool that you're all doing this! I'd let you borrow my bike but the frame is an extra small - perfect for shorties like me, but probably not for you, LOL. Good luck!
Wow, I'm so impressed! Good luck!!! I told Cannon you were doing this, and he says the water is too cold! Maybe he'll do the Ogden Valley one instead.
