5 Weeks Out

*Cliche´* It feels like it was just yesterday that we started this long journey.

Now we are getting down to crunchtime and we need to start kicking butt and taking names! I'm stoked to see what the results are going to be. I started using a new app that tracks my workouts, so I will try to use it durng my runs and cycling to let you all see where I am.


IF YOU ARE READING THIS DONATE!!!

Why didn't ANYONE tell me I looked like THIS!!!!

So we had our first open water swim today. It was definitely a challenge with the wet suit and of course the choppy water but I think we all did a great job. It took a little getting used to breathing in the suit but once you got it, it was smooth sailing.

Thank you to Maria for capturing the difficulties of getting into the wet suit AND my ridiculous AFRO!!! I didn't think it was this bad, seriously. I know it's long but this looks like I just stepped out of a 70's disco. Alas, I will continue to grow it as hopefully more votes come in to determine my race day hair style.

Big shouts to everyone who has donated thus far and to everyone supporting Will and I in our quest to find our inner triathletes and raise money and awareness for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
