Everything in Charlotte is springing into shape -- including me. :) April 1st marks my first day of official training for a late summer sprint-triathlon (750 meter swim, 17-mile bike, 5k run). It will be the 1st triathlon for Mike and me and we're excited to do it together. We've been registered for months and now is our 20-week-out mark. Mike has been killing it in the pool, on the bike and on the treadmill, and its finally time for me to regularly join him. I'm pretty sure it will be a one-time thing for me, but Mike has really loved his training so far. He thinks that these mini-triathlons just might be a new passion for him (it helps that he's an awesome swimmer!).
We'll complete it a few weeks before our 9-year wedding anniversary (which is how I originally talked Mike into doing it with me...a great bonding experience). We'll be rewarding our swim-bike-run with a trip to London-Dublin-Glasgow and will spend our actual anniversary at a Coldplay concert in Dublin. So glad I'll be in tip-top shape when I "meet" Chris Martin for the first time! :)

let me know if you're ever at the gym on a tuesday or thursday morning. the 10:45am cycle class is pretty good.
Run, bike, and swim like the wind my friend! And you find time to train for this with raising 3 kids- super mom!
