I can do it!

I've been training extra hard for the triathlon this week, and I've managed to have 3 milestones all in one week. On Wednesday, I biked 13 miles straight with Don, then on Thursday I swam 650 meters straight, and today I did a 5Km race. All of these distances represent the distances of each of the events in the triathlon, so knowing I can do them all individually is really great. I have yet to know whether I can do them all back to back, but I'm getting there. It took me about an hour to bike 13 miles, roughly 12 minutes to swim 650m, and 28 minutes to run 5km. Add that all up and I'm at 1h and 45 minutes. My guess is that it will take at least 2 hours though. Just thought I'd share!

  2. I have no doubt in my mind you can put all 3 pieces of this together and ROCK IT! You can do anything you put your mind to, Eileen! And George can serve you hot tea in a bubble bath when it's all over!
