Just wanted to share

I introduced myself a few weeks ago.  Since then I had to have some minor surgery (prevented me from doing anything for a little while, went away on vacation, and then have been navigating through the Holidays with 3 kids and lots of family.  But...I was able to get 2 runs in while gone for 6 days on vacation and I officially started tri training yesterday.  I am going to follow the "couch to sprint" program (add two days of strength training as well) and the plan is to compete in mid May.  I already have a small base in running (competed in a 5k about a year ago) and have maintained the ability to still run for about 15 minutes.  I was so excited yesterday that I swam, ran and biked yesterday.  I was only supposed to swim and run, but I felt good and the distances are pretty short and even though I am not where I need to be I also don't consider myseld a true couch potato.  Today was a bike and strength day...stuck to just those.

I just wanted to share that I took advantage of the first real chance I had to get started and even though I am little sore today and will be for a little while I am sure...I feel good!  I am a terrible swimmer and even after just a short period in the pool I could feel myself getting more comfortable and the same can be said on the bike.  I did not even own a bike until 4 days ago.

 I am excited and looking forward to tomorrow's swim and run to see what adjustments I can continue to make.

I have seen a lot of encourgement on this site, so I wanted to share how excited I am after two days and looking forward to the 3rd. 

 Happy New Year!
