Almost Tri Time!


The Rattlesnake Triathlon is in 3 Days!!! I’m as ready as I’mever going to get! Last week I met with Deb, a triathlete who volunteered toadvise the ALZ Stars (athletes raising money for the Alzheimer’s Association).She helped me figure out what I needed for the race, and how to set up my transitionarea, and then swam a lap in the Bear Creek Reservoir. After that I feel prettyconfident about the swim portion of the triathlon…however I’m less confidentthat I’ll be able to bike and run after that!

The last two weekends I ran a couple quick 5Ks. At the “IRun Colorado 5K” I ran my best time yet (26:52) and at the “Davita Kidney Rock5K” I didn’t run quite as fast, but I did place 5th in my age group!Both were really great races and I had a lot of fun! Friday is the Firefly 5K,a after-dark, glowstick 5K I’m going to run with Liz.

Friday I had off from work for network maintenance day soAdam and I went to the zoo! We really wanted to see aardvarks, wallabies andpanthers, but they didn’t have any. Instead we saw Komodo Dragons, tigers and amongoose!
