Subject: RE: Another newbie to Tris....Hey Nancy--
I'm one of your locals--I live (and train ) in Berkeley, but my group (I train with 3 others ) often goes up to do rides in Healdsburg and the surrounding areas. In fact, we are insanely considering doing the Healdsburg century in July.
I'm really excited for you. I'm 33 and started doing tri's about a year and a half ago (thinking it would be a one time thing ) but now I'm a big fan. We were going to do Barb's race this year (which is a half iron-man in your area ) but scheduling didn't work out. But mostly, I think: ME, a 1/2 iron man?? ME, the woman who practically crawled across the finish line at the Danskin sprint distance?
This could be you in a year and a half! Beware!!
Have fun with it, and if you'd like, I'll give you an e-mail when we come up to Dry Creek valley to do another ride. We sometimes finish them up with a little run just to get in our body used to that weird, weird transition!
