I am a triathlete now!

I completed the Title 9 Womens' Tri in Mass yesterday! Yaaaaaay!

I want to thank all of you lovely ladies for commenting on here or on my blog and offering your advice or support. I am already thinking about what race I will do next. :)

If you are interested in reading the (detailed!) race report, here is the link: http://theunlikelytriathlete.blogspo.../i-did-it.html

Thanks so much to everyone!

Congrats!!!!

Good for you!

EXCELLENT!!!
Congrats!!!!
I'm off to read all about it now.
Way to go!!!!:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D


Just read all about it. You look BEAUTIFUL, STRONG, HAPPY, and FIT! I loved the commentary on the whole event, and must confess that I yelled "yay!" when I read about you finishing. I'm so happy for you! There's nothing like crossing a finish line that first time. You'll never forget it. Congrats again!!

Congratulations on a tough first tri! I'm impressed with your perseverance through it all.

WOW, what a race report!!! :eek: You really toughed it out. I think you're a triathlete and a half for that effort. Congratulations for (mostly) keeping your composure and FINISHING! :D I loved the race report and pictures.

Well done and what a fantastic race report.:D:D

I liked the cape.:cool:

GIRL. You've got GUTS! That is some race report, and some race you did! You should be really proud.

I must admit that was the most entertaining RR I have read! Put a smile on my face to start my day (at work)!
WOW tough bike leg! Nothing like equipment failure and a tough course. But you completed all 3 legs = Triathelete.

Also congrats on being in a size L race shirt!!!

So when is YOUR next tri?;)

That's awesome. Congratulations!!!

Congratulations!!! Great race report, even though it sounds like it was a really tough race--a lot of people would have given up when they had mechanical problems on the bike. Good for you for toughing it out and finishing!

I got all teary eyed reading the report, just like your mom. Way to go!

PRSS...so THAT's what that is. I thought it was just me :rolleyes:

What a wonderful RR. Congratulations to our newest triathlete. What great mental strength you demonstrated with all of your challenges. And it looks like you remembered to have fun. Yes!!!!!:D

Thanks to all of you ladies for your kind words, means so much to me! :o I am so excited for next year, I can't wait to participate and actually get to ride the whole bike leg! Hahaha. I am hoping to save up enough to get a new bike over the winter, anyone have any favorite bikes?
