.... with the Trek 1.2T 2009 model. I haven't purchased it yet, but I got to "test ride" yesterday and it was awesome. Brandon, the bike shop guru, measured me and got me fitted up for the bike. I need a 54cm for my 6ft tall self. He got the seat height correct right off the bat. He showed me how to use the shifters and everything, then I headed out to the test track (a next door Taco Bell parking lot). I think I will take to the bike pretty easily. Hopefully I can purchase in the next few weeks.
I'm head to the gym to lift. It's leg day, so I should be ready for the pool when I go this evening.
75 days to go.... anyone else as freaked out as I am? Heeeheeeheee
Let's go Tri Divas!
Alana
I am a 32 year old new mother to twin boys! I participated in the Danskin Chicagoland triathlon in July 2008 and I look forward to the '09 event with all of these wonderful ladies.
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!

Sweeeeeet bike. I love new toys! :)
As for being freaked out, I'm trying to find my game face (it's probably at the pool that I don't visit nearly enough LOL) The new work schedule starts next week, so I plan to get some nice pool time in the mornings before work. FYI, I'll require another pre-swim pep talk this year too. :)
*raising my hand* YES!!!!!! I'm freaked out. It's like, I know I did this once, but I'm wondering if it's a fluke and I won't be able to duplicate it! *LOL* :)
CoCo-- I'm there for the pre-swim peptalk as long as you're there to convince me that I won't die on the bike!!!!!
Deal, Jenn!
Have you been training in the basement with your heater? LOL
