Personal:

I was a single mom.  Two times over.  We all survived, despite the fact that I make atrocious decisions.  Then, I met a man I didn't deserve.  And he loves me so much.  And I love him. We lived in sin and bought a house for two years then hired a judge and officially got married(to our great delight and also the delight of our mothers), then a month later he was diagnosed with cancer.  Well we survived all that and he's 100% fine now.  But, we're really out of shape and really busy with kids and jobs and running just isn't my priority and there's so many other layers to all of it, but I'm running anyway.  This is my failure blog now.  Just to log that one run a week if I snag it.  
Somehow that matters and I want that run recorded.

so my friend Sara felt I should really get my depressed butt off the couch and talked me into a triathlon, and she will be my training partner holding me accountable.  Today:  30 minutes on the bike, 500 yards in the pool.   It felt great to move my body for a change.

45 minutes on the bike(12.2 miles).  1500 yards in the pool.  --500 continuous warm up, made it under 10 minutes for the first time ever, 4x 100 on the 3:00 clock, 10 x 50 on the 1:30 clock, 100 cooldown.  took kids swimmin for an hours.  JulieC  basically on the clock means a new repeat starts every 3 minutes or 1:30 or whatever--so the faster you swim the more rest you get or the slower you swim you get less rest between repeats.
