oh... I'm glad you told me about that san dimas race! I would've been standing there steaming the whole time it was delayed! I'd imagine the Solana Beach one would be flat as it is up/around the coast... good for me, I'm a hill wimp! Although, if I like it, I want to do the Wildflower Mtn bike one next year - it sounds very fun (plus you can sign up for a clinic that covers the entire route!).

No worries about me pushing it too hard with the wrist... wow, yesterday I couldn't even lift a water bottle (couldn't grip it!). I've been working it most of the day per the doctor's orders - just moving it back and forth up and down etc. Just to give an example of how stiff it is... I can't put my right hand flat to my chest (like when you do pledge of allegiance). My elbow is fine but my hand won't twist; it stays sideways! I see a big improvement from yesterday though and don't plan on getting on the road bike for another two weeks or so. I got a splint from the dr. to help support it when I ride or do anything else strenuous... PT appt friday so we'll see what they say.

I still haven't told my DH that I actually signed up for a tri... he's going to have me committed! I mentioned it a month or so ago and he just kind of rolled his eyes and laughed. He's actually very supportive and he and I are perfect for each other. He (nor I, in his case, for that matter) never knows what kind of idea I will come up with next! At least he will never be bored... and it doesn't hurt that he's got that same crazy mentality too

I think he will really get into it (cheering, that is) after I have done a few events... I haven't done much of anything in the years we've been married. I did do them before we actually got married (while we were dating) so its not like this is all a surprise though.

Obviously Tony is very supportive... how are everyone else's husbands??? Also, when do you all do the majority of your training? Melisa and Denise, are you both SAHMs? Or do you work outside the home too??? AND, how many hours during the week do you typically train? Of course, my training will be much more abreviated due to the course length but I'm curious anyway.
