US West Team - May "President's Cup" challenge

HEY HEY!!! I see LOADS of old faces and some new ones!!   

I'm Lynne, 36 year old married Scot now living near Seattle. I started doing triathlon's last year and in total ended up doing 7.   I'm hoping to expand and do bigger tri's this year so I need all the motivation I can get. Next year I'm aiming for 1/2 IM and full marathon. *gulp*  

Hi Lynne! Long time no talk!

I am Nancy from the far west(originally from the northeast), did my first sprint years ago, then worked on having children and ended up having twin boys, needed something to keep me motivated to stay fit and healthy so back at doing tri's again, no big plans to do a 70.3 or Iron, but may dive into an Olympic next year.  Doing my fifth sprint this month and looking forward to it!

Hi everyone!

Wow, they're quick!  Thanks MDHillSlug and gillyfev!  Another Hawaiian here...just a little late to sign up for the fun. I was on Hawaiian time . My goals for the month are:

swim: 21,000 yards
bike: 21 hrs.
run: 13 hrs.

It's a little less than my training plan, but this month is going to be a crazy one for me. These challenges help motivate me to get those miles in even if I would rather stay on my couch. I'm training for the Vineman 70.3 in July. I think that training's been chugging along, but I need to drink more wine to make sure that I'm ready for the winery visits after the race. I've been slacking. .

Hi!  What marathon and 70.3 are you aiming for next year? 

Hi Nalani! We are finally on the same team again! I would have to practice the wine thing too! I am such a light weight.

Hi lyric4christ! very interesting user name! I don't believe Jesus kicked anybody out.

I know somebody has to be faster at making the quick link to our thread, spreadsheet, and teamies to inspire; than me.  I don't know how to make them all fancy and all fun stuff just basic. Thanks.

Hi everyone! I'm a 33 year old wife and mother in Long Beach, CA. I started racing last year and have now done 7 sprints, plus a 5K and some OW swim races. I do have one sprint this month and possibly a 5k at the end of the month. Not sure if I'll do that one!

I'm trying to get onto this team. My name is Geoff and this is my third year off the couch. I'm in Lafayette, CA. You may not hear from me for a little bit. I'm off to Wildflower OLY this weekend.

I am married with 5 kids.  My wife does this crazy sport too--she is doing the Wildflower mountain bike course this weekend. 

Gooooo Teaammmmm!

Hi Jocelyn!

You guys are way cool, my hubby is a surfer so we can give each other our time!

Good luck this weekend!

Yes he did remove the people who were selling animals at unfair prices at the temple. but then he died for them/us on the cross!

Hi everyone,

Good to see some familiar "faces", and nice to meet the new one

I'm Roni currently living in Montana and originally from Spokane Washington, so a West Coast girl all the way I spend alot of time traveling throughout the pacific NW with my DH who is a runner and biker, but just won't do the swimming part. I'm heading to Spokane today for a long weekend and running Bloomsday on Sunday so I probably won't be around much for a little while, but don't worry I'll be training. Love these challenges as they keep me motivated and I get to meet a bunch of really cool people. Happy training everyone!
