The Triathloners and The Turkey Trotters



Dennis and I both decided that maybe reverse triathlons were not "our thing"...

The T3 Turkey Trot Tri and 5K was November 3, 2007. I think the best thing both of us can say about the experience right now is that it was an experience to be had.

I was recovering from a cold and figured there was no way in you know what that I would be able to do the entire tri. I "turkey'd" out and completed the 5K.

Dennis completed the whole race! It was his first tri and I am SOOOO proud of him! He can't stop talking about his "next race" and what he will do differently next time.

We need to get on Active.com and see when our next race will be and get out the ol' training calendar and get up to speed. I have committed to working on my core muscles and seeing how that will help with overall training, endurance, and all the rest. I'd like to think that I am disciplined enough to make it to a spin class once a week...Oh yeah, did I tell you that the class is at 5:45 am? We'll see how many times I get there.....UGH.

The pedals keep moving forward...the pools are being drained...and the running shoes are still drying out from a walk...And so goes the life of budding triathletes...
