A definite athena here...

Hi everyone. I've just joined BT and am still finding my way around. I am most definitely an Athena. A smaller one than I used to be, but even when I hit goal I'll still be an Athena. So it's nice to know there are so many others of us.

My background. Started running last year. Have done 2 half marathons. Both with the same finish time. 2:50.

First tri next weekend. Just learned how to swim. Signed up for the tri on a dare from my personal trainer and used it as an excuse to force myself to learn to swim. I fully expect to be dead last. But who knows, I might not be. Either way there will be a huge celebration when I finish.

I lost a lot of weight then got lazy. So I just joined one of the challenge boards to get back on the wagon.

I really like this site. It's very professional and full of resources. I also am impressed by how open it is. My training log and race calendar is there for all to see. Talk about accountablity!

Well, nice meeting you all. Thanks for the inspiration. I hope to pass some along as I go.
