With the encouragement of the many who did it last year I decided to do the Litchfield Park Sprint Triathlon. It is only a 300 yard swim 8.4 mile bike and 2 mile run. For a girl who hasn't regularly worked out in over 5 years that was asking A LOT though. With only 3 weeks to train I got serious mostly because I got in the pool and couldn't swim one lap without stopping twice. It was very gratifying to see progress in my swim from 30 minutes to 7.5 minutes. I wish I had trained on the bike more I had no clue what was doing there. Regardless, I really felt great the whole time . . . and had a lot of fun. Looking forward to focusing on my bike and running times for the next tri. I think Brock and I are going to do the Luke AFB Sprint Triathlon together.
