Triathlon Week!!!!

My first triathlon was this past Sunday and it was an amazing experience! I love doing something new and it was really fun and a perfect day weather wise as well. This was a sprint tri consisting of a 500 meter open water swim, 18 mile bike and a 5k. Phil, being the athlete that he is beat me, but I came in 2nd in my age group! I couldn't believe it when we pulled up the results at home that night. So, sometime this weekend I need to drive out to Grapevine and pick up my award. :)

I had a really good workout week and I feel much better about my half marathon training as I've been running more often and more consistently. I need to up my mileage on my weekly runs but at least I'm out there running.

On a crazy note, during my long run on friday morning I saw two coyotes at white rock. I thought I was seeing a stray dog at first and then it turned around. A second later another one popped out from the woods. There was a guy behind me and we both turned around and went the other way. I'm not even going to mess with wild animals!
