Sprocketsmom was great
I have to say our tri helpers made running look very easy. Hrrrm....
Thanks Jocelyn and Salsa for posting a recap of the weekend. The company was fantastic, the food was yummy, and the location and hosts were perfect. We are all very lucky PNW people.
Here's another picture. It is HRH Wahine adorned in tiara and whip...er...scepter She has that "I just woke up and always look this good" gift. Seriously.

Tri Novices NO MORE!
You are now gnarly-girl triathletes trained by Wahine the wonderful (or wicked, depending on her diabolical training tendencies!)...ready to torpedo through open water, make smooth transitions in a single bound, pedal strong on your ride leg, then get those quads to settle down quickly for your walk/run...to gracefully glide under that FINISH line banner, arms raised triumphantly...ta da!
Looks and sounds like a terrific time; I'm glad for all of you...cool beans, ladies!
Tailwinds!

I'm pretty darn envious of you girls, that sounds like such a great time...
It's a little secret you didn't know about us women. We're all closet Visigoths.

Here I go!
So inspired to hear of everyone's recent races . . . . plus the fact that I was able to walk away from Wahine's boot camp without aggravating any injuries
. . . I've signed up for the Sept. 7th Sprint in Federal Way.
. . . now I just gotta get myself on a training schedule. Especially with the running and the swimming.
If all goes well I should be pretty comfortable with the run/swim distances a week before the race. Worst case, I'll just be a slow-poke.
Good luck to everyone who is doing Danskin next week!
