Swim, Bike, and what? Oh, Run! I forgot to run!
I went out to Cherry Creek Reservoir this morning for a little tri training fun. Their swim beach was closed, so I drove over to Aurora Reservoir. by the time I got there it was after 10:00 a.m. - on a hot day.
The swim was fun! The water was cold and felt great! I got to talk with a bunch of other women who are training for the Danskin (july 15) and the Tri for the Cure (august 5). I swam 800 meters in 27:38 - which I was happy with.
I hopped out of the water, walking sideways as I sometimes do after a swim, and got on my bike and rode 20K in 1:09:28. I am not thrilled with that time, but you should see the hills I was climbing! I felt good the entire time, even though it was over 90 degrees by the time I got on the bike.
It was a great workout and makes me think I should register for the Danskin too! I know I could do a tri next weekend. My times may not be the best, but I could do it. I will mull this one over.
Yesterday I went and I tried on that skirt I was so excited about and it looked terrible on me. It is definitely made for very small teeny little athletic people. Not big lumbering athletic peeps like me!
Have a great weekend everybody!

My dear Mary Christine!! You like those tri's, do ya? LOL!! I'm so happy that you have your little niche ;-) You SHOULD do the Danskin if you feel up to it! Who cares what the times are as long as you're having fun ;D
Pfffftttt I bet the skirt didn't look terrible!! I'm about to order one myself. I need to check their return policy first though LOL!
Great job!!!!!!!!!!!!! Way to be motivated and get it all done in one day!! Oh man, that sucks about the skirt!!!!!! Pooh!! I have the biggest butt and so it wouldn't look good on me at all.
Wow - glad to read some enthusiasm. Go for the Danskin! Go for it! Go for it!
I tried on a SheBeest cycloskort today. It was pretty cute...but $80....ouch! Couldn't quite part with the cash for that one today.
Go for the Danskin!
Who needs skirts when we can wear shorts :)
The skirt looks so cute... they haven't taken off here in the UK yet, or not as far as I am aware, I certainly haven't seen many around. Perhaps I should be the first to introduce them to our club?!
Great on you and your Tri's - they seem like mighty hard work!
Go for it! Sounds like you would have a great time with it.
