It is so important to constantly challenge ourselves physically. We are people wanting to influence each other and others we meet along the way.
This is where we can get workouts for the day, track your times, pr's, ask and reply to questions and comments.

This is also where we will share what events we are participating in and opening them up to the rest of the team to take part in.

Waupaca Triathon 2011

 Just some highlights....



 


 
 



A few more newcomers and experiences this year.. which is fantastic!  Carol, Tiffany, and Jodi were the first timers finishing their first Triathlon!  Abbey also rocked it on her first Team Tri.. nothing like having a baby 9 weeks ago and telling me two weeks after she would like to do the swim part of the Tri... HECK YEAH You can swim!!  So in total~ Jill, Carol, Tiff, Katie, Jodi all worked hard on the sprint tri and for teams we had.. Vida, E, Sue & Abbey, Jenne, Me.  We also cheered on the Dynamic Daliege Duo who both did the Sprint.... and then when done, flew back to Rome for two ski shows that day!

Some of the best things that come out of making a few of these events a tradition is that they are truly looked forward to as part of the summer..  Vida and Sue have been looking forward to this since the day after last year~  OH the enthusiasm and if you look hard you can see it in the picture above of Vida getting done with the swim and running with Sue, to E, to hand off the chip for the bike part. 

My Team had a little discussion about how fun it was to work on it all together but after our part was done and you see all the competitors finishing... you feel a tad guilty that you didn't do the entire thing... I WILL say that when on a Team- It Is Fun.  I got to cheer, take pictures, people watch, ChEEr some more... and then when Jenne came in from the bike, she ripped the chip, slapped it on my ankle and I got to do my part. WOOHOO.

There are still thing to do this summer.. and if you have been too busy noticing the weather is awesome right now... so post what you are planning on doing before the snow flies and get outside with friends~ Bike, Paddle, play Kickball, whatever it takes to find yourself enjoying some fresh air and feeling great about yourself. 
For myself:  Tomatoe season is coming in and between them and the cucumbers and zucchini... Katie and I have our hands full~literally!!
