    I'm not really racing, but have signed up for my very first Tri....the Harwich sprint on June 26th Definitely not aiming to win, just hope to complete the event before all the officials have packed up and gone home.

    Hey, that's awesome! I've only done one tri myself. I think most of us who are starting out just want to finish that first one so we can gain some confidence and use that experience to set goals for the next one. We all have to start somewhere!

    As far as tris are concerned, I just plan on volunteering for the St. George Ironman on May 1.

    If anyone is coming...let me know, perhaps we can get together.

    Congrats of signing up! It takes alot of bravery to write the check.

    I did an Olympic 5-6 years ago where I was one of the last out of the water. But I'm a good cyclist, so I wasn't worried about making up time. Until I got a flat. I was a really poor runner at the time, so needless to say, I was almost the last person to finish. They waited for everyone, obviously, but they *were* dismantling the finish line banner when I got there.

    I love reading about all your plans.

    I have 2 races on the schedule right now. IM Canada in late August and the Texas Hill Country 600 which I will be doing as a two person relay with my BF. That's 600 km not miles.

    I will probably do a few of the races that Susan has planned. The Deschutes River Valley TT festival, Ring of Fire (this time as a two person team), and Pacific Crest HIM. Otherwise... who knows. I'm thinking about buying a fixer upper house so I may need to save my pennies.

    I sent in my registrations for DRVTT & Pac Crest HIM today! Holding off on RoF until later in the year. There's a very small chance that I might be out of the country that week, so I'm holding off until I know for sure.

    The funny thing about that is... I'm house sitting at RAO headquaters right now and saw your envelop come in the mail. So it's here, but George and Terri are out of town so don't expect it to get cashed anytime soon.

    I want to DRVTT but I think I might have a course conflict. I may have to go to Denver that weekend.
