My tri is next weekend. Yesterday I managed to get out the entire swim/bike/run (or *wog* in my case). I feel pretty good about it now. The swimming, as suspected was a challenge, but I'll just float to recover if needed.
I post regularly on the over 35 workout journal forum on bodybuilding.ocm. One of the guys there had some tips. Said the wetsuit was invaluable and was extra security "Like floaties" and also said when the gun goes off, count to 5 before even thinking about moving.
Today I did a swim and bike brick. I will be laying of the weight training this week, with the exception of Tuesday and all my cardio will be in the pool or on the bike.
That's all from me!

Jenn
My name is Jenn, I'm 35 years old and live in the Chicago Suburbs. When CoCo talked me into this Tri thing, I thought she was nuts, but I'm so glad she did. I've caught the Tri bug! I even became a certified tri-coach through HeartZones and will be Team Administrator for the NW Suburban Trek Tri Training group again this summer. I am also now a member of USAT! I've also rejoined Weight Watchers and am determined to not let my extra fluff or my fibromyalgia hold me back! Happy Training!

I am a 36 year YOUNG, single mother of two (very grown) teenagers, and grandmother, to the most perfect little boy ever born. I am currently on a mission to break an image that no longer defines who I am!!
Julie
I'm Julie. I'm 33 years old, and single... and can finally claim a medal... it may not be a gold one, but I can now show off my finisher's medal, my finisher's hat and my finisher's towel... I'm so excited for new and different events and my next attempt, after Sweet and Twisted booze and cake, will be an Olympic distance.
Lass

Left in 2003 b/c I wasn't happy with the direction my journey was headed. Coco convinced me (finally) that a triathlon was just the thing to kick my butt in gear...that was 2008. It's 2009, I was crazy enough to tri it again...and have the finisher's medal to prove it.
Lynnderful
My name is Lynn, I'm 32 years old, single with no children. I'm embarking on this mission to become a triathlete because I want to prove to myself that I am strong enough. I'm also looking forward to seeing my fellow Tri-Divas achieve their goals!
