Race on

Big day...big decision! Not really. My sister has these powers over me. When she suggests something I pretty much take it and go with it. I haven't done a triathlon for years. I signed up for Ironman Cour de'Alene 2010 because I needed a BIGGER challenge. With 12 marathons behind me and tattoo to show for it I knew Ironman was next! So it all starts NOW. Swim. Bike. Run. August 8th I re-enter the triathlon world with an olympic distance tri! The rest of 2009 my race schedule is booked. Lots to do...lots to accomplish. I will hit 20 marathons by Dec 31, 2009! (need one more race on my schedule!)

To date here are the marathons I have run:

1. Silicon Valley
2. Napa
3. Big Sur
4. CIM missed BQ by 53 seconds...PACE dude SUCKED!
5. Cour de'Alene (Boston qualified 3:45)
6. Nike Womans....HATED this race! Never the full again!
7. Phoenix Rock and Rock (Boston qualified again 3:39)
8. Napa AGAIN! (Boston Qualified again 3:35)
9. BOSTON! 3:37! Every year until I die!
10. Big Sur...6 days later 3:52
11. Eugene 7 days after BS....PR 3:32
12. San Diego Rock and Roll... 3:47, I walked backwards waiting for Monica for 15 mins!

I thought I had 13 down...YIKES! I seemed to have lost one in my mind! I will find it...hmmm.
