Only Three Weeks Left To Go!

I can't believe how quickly this year's TNT experience has gone by, yet when I think back to all the wonderful moments we have had as a team working toward this triathlon goal I realize how much we have accomplished.

A few weeks ago we swam for 45 minutes in the 51-degree San Francisco Bay at 8 am, then ran an hour to the base of the Golden Gate Bridge. The next day, we ran the Rhodes Race 5K at Lake Merritt, where I was the 4th woman and 3rd in my age group. While my time was virtually the same as last year (24:56), my pace was much more consistent, so I think I am learning how to be a more efficient runner rather than starting out too fast, dying in the middle and kicking it at the end.

Last weekend, for our big brick workout we rode our bikes 15 miles in Danville, through verdant hills past red farmhouses off Camino Tassajara. Then we ran 15 minutes. Then repeat. I had planned to do three of these in a row, but coach Paul told me quality was better than quantity, and to push myself hard on the second rep. I did, and I was totally spent!

I appreciate the support of everyone thus far. Now it's near the deadline for fundraising -- please make your donations soon and help me spread the word! My race is looming... May 3 here we come!
