I can't believe it. I did it. I signed up for the MS150 Houston to Austin again.
Registration for the event opened at 10:15 yesterday and by 1:52 pm it was over 80% full. 13,000 slots goes pretty fast!
It's also the 25th anniversary for the event, so hopefully it will be one to remember. I'll be riding with Team Mission Control. :)
Training for the MS150 will be good for me, partnered with the training for the 2009 Danskin. I have to figure out a new workout schedule, but I definitely need to dedicate at least 1 day to the swimming pool.
The Cadence function on my bike computer is already proving to make a difference in my riding. It kind of opens my eyes to how I utilize my energy. Hopefully this will make me more efficient and make my training more productive.
Just a couple weeks until the LiveSTRONG 5K and ride. I'm looking forward to the event. I'm sure Lance will remember me from the raffle drawing in 2003. LOL
Happy training girls!

Coco
I'm Courtney. 32 years old, single, no heirs to the throne. I completed my first triathlon in July 2008 and fell in love. I look forward to continuing the multisport journey with my fellow Tri Divas!
Donna "Cassie"s Mommy"
A 40 year young Mom, Wife and student who enjoys taking on new challenges, but often needs needs a lesson or two in balancing between work, school, home and training. My words of wisdom, "Do it while you're young -- it doesn't get any easier later, and there is NEVER a good time."
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!
Jennifer
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
I'm Lesli. 33 years old. Single with two furkids. I am a systems librarian for a group of medical libraries. I joined Weight Watchers in 2001. 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!

I really need one of those cadence computers.
I can't believe 13,000 slots would go so quickly, but it's amazing how fast people sign up to do these physical challenges.
It's so thrilling to say I DID IT! at the end.
Good Luck this weekend, D!
