KEEP TRI'ing



(nerves)

Tomorrow - 9:35 am I will Tri. I won't win. I won't even come close. My hope is to not be the last person in my age group across the finish line. If I can beat just one person I'll be happy. Well, maybe if I can beat more - then I'd be hapy. But I'll try to settle for at least being second to last. No more Athena... even though my crappy weight right now MORE than puts me well into that category! I'm having slight issues in that department - but we'll save that for a later post.
I TRI to do hard things
I TRI to face my fears
I TRI to push myself to do something I never thought I would have the physical ability to do
I TRI to lose weight
I TRI to make my heart happy
I TRI to fight against depression
I TRI to find the person inside that's dying to escape this body shape
I TRI to become the person I want to be
I TRI because I LOVE IT. 

Why do YOU TRI?
