I am officially insane

I just registered for the IronGirl Triathlon.

Once the panic dissipates, I will gently remind myself that yes, I can do this, I'll need to work hard for it, but I Can Do This.

1K swim: Well, I'm out of practice, but I could do this. When I was swimming 3 times a week.
30K bike: That shouldn't be too bad. That's the kind of outing we might do as a family on the weekend. Over the course of a whole day.
5K run: No problem, I do that for a typical morning workout. Of course, I'd be doing this after a 1K swim and 30K bike ride...

I've been keeping an exercise log, filtered to interested people. I guess now would be a good time to ask if you'd like to be added to the filter.

Eep!

Remember, part of winning is making sure everyone else loses.

Throw in some tripping practice, and get handy with the pump so you can stick it in people's wheels at speed. Carrying an extra couple of pumps is probably a good idea.

Here's where I ignore the advice from the guys who only does sports that involve trying to thwack other people....
