Ok, so what now?

This is my very first post to my blog. I've always thought blogs were kind of silly, which should explain why I've decided to start my own, right? So why am I really doing this? Well, I don't know... Maybe it's so I can put all of my triathlon ramblings in one place so that anyone who actually wants to read this stuff (there must be one or two of you out there!) can. So now I'll start rambling...

Yesterday I turned 40. On Saturday, I'm doing my first sprint distance triathlon (the one we did in training didn't count). Should be a piece of cake after the "triple super sprint" that I did a couple of weeks ago. Yeah, right. It's never a piece of cake! Tonight I did my last run before Saturday's race and I had to cut it short because something hurt. My knee or my shin or some muscle in my lower leg -- I'm not sure what. So while the rest of the team did a 2.5 km cool down, I walked back in the other direction (it was a lot shorter). Tomorrow is a rest day and then on Friday it's up to the Sea of Galilee to get ready for the race. Wish me luck!
