Training Update

It is officially less than one week until I compete in my first triathlon! I'm getting anxious! Yesterday I got up early and went to the gym to swim the actual length I will be swimming. Since I started I have improved my swim time by a minute and a half. I'm not telling what it is yet though. I'll post my final times next weekend after the race. After swimming I went to Cooper where the triathlon will be taking place and ran the actual course for the run. I've been worried about this section since I've never been the best long distance runner but I'm beginning to feel more confident. Today, I am picking up the bike I'll be using. I'm so excited about this section of the race. Since I'm addicted to spin class I'll have no issues with this part (unless I forgot how to ride a bike).


After all that working out, I layed out at the pool yesterday afternoon. Last night I was exhausted but I realized I was outside all day. This week should be nice since it is only supposed to be around 90-95 degrees in stead of 105 like it has been. I can't wait to share how I do, I hope I don't die :)


For a final side note: I have sold my first four J. Hilburn custom dress shirts this week. I am so excited about this fun side business of mine. I love it! Just a few pics:
