"ARE YOU SERIOUSLY TAKING A PICTURE OF ME RIGHT NOW?"
SPUDMAN 2010 TRIATHLON
Kday's totally awesome sister asked me to be the swimmer for her team. "Heck Yes!" I said. So then I remembered that it's twice the distance than I'd swam in my last tri. Yikes. Super yikes. I've been in the pool - training. But then you shove yourself into a gigantic neoprene, skin tight, makes you want to scream out in claustrophobia - wet suit on... and the real fun begins. I struggled a bit on the swim. I thought I was so so ready, but then the anxiety set in and I couldn't breath. My total time was about 3 minutes slower than I'd hoped. But that's what next time is for.
Kday's sister PINKY SWEARS we'll both do this solo next year
RRRRRIBIT
Pre-race jitters
Robyn rocked the run
Lady knew the best way to console me
Team TRI..... Hotties
By the way... did I mention we took 2nd place?
Well, the swim didn't go as well as planned. But I'm back in the pool and this week I start the bike and run. 4 weeks in counting till I squeeze my shiz back into a wetsuit. It's GO time.

YOU ARE THE WOMAN!!!! YOU GO GIRL!!! You didn't tell me you got 2nd! Way to go!!
2nd, I am way impressed, and a little jelous. Good job!
That is awesome. See I would never do a triathlon. Here is why...if you get tired while running, you walk, if you get tired while biking you can change gears and slow down, But if you get tired while swimming you drown!
You are amazing. Good job!
Wow, Shan that is AMAZING! Love you and so proud of you. We need to celebrate at Sego Lily one of these days soon.
