This morning we all woke up "dark" and early to head up to the Scera Pool for the Share a Smile Triathlon relay. You see, about 3 weeks ago Jason forwarded me an email begging for someone to participate with Aribex in the swimming portion of the relay. I volunteered. It didn't take long before I regretted it. LOL.That day we headed to Big 5 to purchase some goggles and a swim cap. The next morning I headed to the city rec center to get back in the water for the first time in at least 9 years. My arms were beyond sore...the ache set in before I was even done swimming. Anyway, I trudged off to the pool a handful of times during these past weeks to "train."
I could bore you with tons of details and insights, but instead I'll just say...I'M SOOO NOT 17 ANYMORE! The picture below is of me post race, right before I "tossed my (pre-race banana and water) cookies" by a nearby tree.

But hey, you're still smilin'! I'm super impressed that you even tried. I probably would have laughed in Spencer's face if he asked me to do it!
YOu did it! I didnt know you were doing this. Well congrats to doing such a good job. I hope you got some more cookies to eat after you tossed yours.
Well, you still look 17 :)

Congratulations!! I am so inspired by you. I would not have had the courage to do it. That is awesome. And you do still look 17 (in a good way!)
Good for you! I don't think my rendition of a frog swimming would get me far in that race. Kudos to you!
