TRI Divided By 3…

As you know, I am participating in the Austin Danskin Triathlon this summer. After talking with the other tri divas, we’ve decided to enter as a relay team instead of individual participants. While all of our workout programs have been kicked up a notch, the question of feeling adequately prepared was discussed.

I think this thought was plaguing all of us, because an overwhelming sense of relief surfaced when the relay decision was made. Chesty will be taking the 1/2 mile swim, DonnainDallas will handle the 12 mile bike ride, and I will complete the event with a 5K run. Chesty and Donna plan to catch up with me so we can cross the finish line together. 🙂

I thought I would be disappointed about the change of plans, but I feel great about the decision. The excitement has returned to the group and it feels like a burden has been lifted. We will have a chance to experience the Danskin, get an accurate picture of what is involved, and plan to take the individual route in 2004.
