Subject: I did my first sprint and loved it!!!!!!
Just wanted to share my excitement. I did my first sprint this weekend in Solana Beach. It was great. Now I know what areas I need to work on for my next race and how to do the transitions. I had so much fun. It's such an awesome feeling to reach a goal that I've been training for four months. Next race, Treasure Island Olympic in San Francisco. I have my work cut out for me but I am so excited to do it that I know I will be able to.

I also now know that I need to book a spa day for the day after the race. I've never needed a massage and a salt bath so bad in my life. I don't feel like a wreck but my body does want some TLC. I did the salt bath and went for a relaxing swim but I still need to book that massage.

So on to the next training schedule, From Couch to Olympic. What a blessing to have found this website!
