I only have a few minutes, but I had to report that I DID IT!
On Saturday I did the 12 mile bike ride on very hilly course for my part of the team triathlon.
I was so nervous, but was determined to do it.
There were 2 very tough hills that I was tempted to get off my bike and walk up, but I didn't! I had to do the loop twice as the course was 6 miles. So the second time up those hills took a lot of mental determination and pure grit to get me up those hills. But I never walked once. I am so proud of myself.
So now whenever I question whether or not I can do something, I am going to remember that I did a tough 12 miles on my bike.
My teammates and I are so determined to do the whole thing next year individually. We loved it and are so psyched about doing this.
What a challenge and what a goal!!!
So we begin the training in all 3 sports. I was already doing some training in all 3 but focused on the bike the last few months.
Anyway, I'll have to update on everything else later. I just had to record this in my blog. I have been wanting to for days and haven't had even a second.
Later!
