Okay, I think I finally figured out this whole "blog thing" (yes, this is my FIRST)! So, Megan - count me in for the Olympic distance! I may have to come visit more often though, so I can practice swimming in the ocean/lakes (I still utilize my "push" off the pool walls for part of my workout distance!!). Getting me into (and out of) a wetsuit could be another interesting feat. Thanks for getting us all motivated! In terms of training...well...I did Lookout Mountain for the first time last weekend and I ran the first team leg (10k) of the Colfax Marathon. Noticed Megan did a 500 warmup for her swim - that's half of my entire workout!! Guess I know what I need to keep working on!
Thanks again, Lori
