Congrats! Nice to see you up on the podium. People have asked me about doing tris, but I don't swim... I marvel at those of you who do these events.
Good job!

The Tri for Fun was A LOT of fun. I'm glad I did that one first. I was a little nervous about the Tri for Real because the website made it sound so serious and I was worried it would be kind of cutthroat and super competitive with snotty people. But as I talked to other folks there, it became apparent that it wasn't like that.

I was all happy during the awards because there were three women who were really encouraging either before the race or during my "walk" and they got on the podium in their age groups.
I'm not sure what I'm going to do with plaque. I love that I got to stand on a giant Red Bull can. It's just so appropriate.

So did you wear that top under your wet suit? I'm trying to figure out if I can wear my sugoi tank under mine...It is never too late to be what you might have been. ~ George Elliot

I did wear that whole outfit under my wetsuit and for the bike and run. I'm wondering how the shorts will be for 56 mile ride. They were okay for 25, but not great.
You can just sort of see it poking out under my arm.
