What a great day I had today. I spent most of the morning with Megan doing some errands and what not. When Lori got her down to a nap at 2PM it was time for a three hour nap. So I could get in some workout time. Lori suggested that I swim, then had a great followup suggestion of biking to the swim. Turns out the round trip to the pool was around 13 miles (the sprint triathlon distance). While at the pool I swam a full mile (a little more than the long olympic distance swim at 1500 meters). When I got back to the house I figured I would give the triathlon a go. So I hopped off the bike, took of the helmet and ran the three miles that remained in the sprint triathlon. Completing my second ever triathlon.
This one was for you mom. I got healthy so that we could play the golf game that never was. And it was that incentive to get fit that gave me the strength to get through this. Hopefully the first of many.
Gotta say, a year ago, I could have never imagined doing another triathlon. Certainly not one with an olympic swim distance in it.
On top of all of that we all went to a great party tonight and had lots of fun. What a day!
