I want to Tri ...

Lets back up :
So 3 weeks after I gave birth to our 3rd child I was playing 2nd base for our local softball team. I played the first few months of the pregnancy and was excited to get back on the field.
Softball and coaching volleyball was about the only active aspect in my life . .  I trained. Ran the first 5 miles ever in my life in March.
During that time I got this crazy idea that I was going to do a TRIATHLON ..
I didn't really even know what exactly it was. It just sounded really good.
So for my birthday I wanted a bike. Are you kidding me.. A BIKE?? I haven't rode a bike since I was like 12.
Happy birthday.. Trex Lexa WSD Oh yeah I am cruising now.
Short story now.
5 miler~ crossed the finish line with my daughter just under an hour.
I completed a Super sprint Tri ~ stood on the podium for 3rd age group 5th overall
Completed Sprint Tri Irongirl ~Crossed the finish line with hand in hand with my training partner and friend.
Turkey trotted for our local food bank and even shared 2nd place with my running partner and friend :)

 I fell in LOVE with my wetsuit, my Lexa and my Nike Free runs !!
I am a TRIATHLETE
