What was really encouraging today, as I was browsing through books at Barnes and Noble on triathlons, was this line in one of the books:
"Your biggest supporter in a triathlon will be your spouse."
SWEET.

going for it.
So maybe I've seriously dabbled in swimming since I was 7 or 8 years old. And okay, maybe I've always just needed a reason to push myself a little harder when I'm running. And perhaps, maybe, it's time I put my sweet ass bike that I got as a graduation present in 2004 to good use.
(And obviously I need more excuses to buy cute workout apparel. But really, that's not the point. Although it is so true.)
Maybe there's a reason why I've always left things until the last minute. My old tendency to bust out 20 page research papers the night before they'd be due. Printing up random stats on clients minutes before a staff meeting. Buying baby shower gifts an hour before the par-tay. Because leaving it to the last minute is pretty much how I roll.
Perhaps this can just go to show that for the next month, it's game on. It's not heaps of time, but that's never really stopped me before.
So, here goes nothing. July 15, Triathloning here I come.
Woot!
And PS- Now I will be held accountable. Because I've confessed to all of you on this here blog. And, wicked importantly, and so deserving of many many heaps of thanks- Egan, my Triathlon guru/mentor, THANK YOU for the encouragement and the push I needed.
