Current challenges/obstacles?

Oooo, fun!
1. This is my third year of doing tris.
2. I always wanted to do a tri and my goal was to do one before I turned 30.  I did my first one at 29.  Goal met!
3.  My goals are to have fun!
4.  I don't know if I really have a favorite sport.  I guess if I had to pick one, I'd pick running.
5.  Least favorite....biking.  Still haven't found the love.  Getting better though.
6.  My biggest challenge is trying to find a balance between training and family.  I'm headed back to school in the fall and that will throw another wrench into the mix too.  I wouldn't want to be bored!
7.  I did two tri's last year, a sprint and a HIM.
8.  Not sure what I am doing this year.  At least one sprint and then I'll take it from there.

yogachic - 2010-03-23 4:59 PM Ok, I'm bored at work today, and and we're falling behind on the post-count challenge. But I don't feel like talking to myself.  Plus, I was thinking, I just started joining the challenges in January, so I don't necessarily know everyone as well as you all know each other.  And also, I'm nosy. 


So!  I'm going to start a bEASTie getting-to-know-you poll (even though it's almost the end of the month).  Feel free to answer any or all of the questions in as many posts as you want Tongue out You can all also just ignore me completely while I just answer the questions to my own poll! 

(I know I could probably just look at everyone's training logs and figure out all this info that way, but how would that help our post count??)

Lauren Jensen...I was swimming laps to loose weight(as part of my working out) and she said to me "you know you could do a triathlon" I laughed at her and continued my swimming, but the whole time thinking maybe I could....she should know what she is talking about she is a pro! Then I met a member in the locker room after swimming and she mentioned that she was doing a tri that had a pool swim, and outdoor ride and run......that is all it took!

hmmmm it depends on how my training is going...right now I love the run, the swim is ok and well the bike is what they stick between the two! Hopefully with my new saddle and bike fit I will like my bike more...I can't wait to get outside!

Fav part is the rush I get from training, love the way I feel after a tough workout and knowing that I pushed myself. Love seeing the improvments in my times and how I feel after. Also love the weightloss/toning that is a result of all the training!
how tough it is to see the gains, the $$$ I spend!

The camaraderie.  Seriously, I think triathletes are some of the nicest people I've ever met (or not met if you count online friends!)

X2!
