for Christmas I asked for one thing: a bike. it didn't have to be fancy, a plain old bike from Walmart would do just fine. I wasn't sure Santa was really going to get me a bike but I really wanted one. my older sister had a bike trailer for the kids that I could have to cart around the kids and not be limited by my husbands work schedule and child care. so imagine my disappointment on Christmas morning when all of my presents were open and done and no bike. I am not really disappointed because I am truly blessed and fortunate to have gotten anything at all. my husband is a great gift giver, he always thinks of the best things to give that are really perfect. until he said he had one more gift and it was a piece of paper with a picture of my new bike! Horray! and ever since then I have ridden maybe 5-6 times. the weather has been totally crappy and the bike trailer doesn't attach correctly on my bike. these problems will soon be corrected and I will be on a roll! all of this to say that in honor of my upcoming 30th birthday I will be doing a little mini triathalon with my friend in June and a sprint triathalon in September. I've been getting in pretty good workouts at the gym 5 days a week and I try to do something at home on the 6th day. I have been mixing in running and swimming with my classes I've been taking (body pump, Zumba, core, kickboxing, body jam, step aerobics, and a spin and sculpt class). so I feel pretty confident that I will be ready to go for my races this summer (ahhh summer, I can't wait for warmer weather)!!
so I will be updating along the way. got to get in bed soon because 6:20 comes early around here.
