It's Official!

I am doing a triathlon.


I have played with the idea of participating in the triathlon long enough. Only knowing that I would regret the decision not to do a triathlon I registered today for the Rexburg Rush Triathlon. With a week of training behind me and 18 days left until the race begins on August 15th I am determined to do what it takes.

The Rush Triathlon offers two different levels of racing - Intermediate and Sprint. I will be participating in the Sprint race. To see a map of the .56 mile swimming course click here, for the 14.22 biking course click here, and for the 3.07 running course click here, and to get a glimpse of a triathlon click here.

I welcome any pointers, comments, or suggestions that might help me in my training or in the actual race. I have never participated in a triathlon before or seen an actual race. I am learning as I go and hope it'll all work out in the end.

The clock is ticking...
