Callie is home from college...well for a week anyway. Next week she heads off on a one week mission trip then back home for another week then back out for another 10 weeks of mission work. Today (Sunday) she competed in a Sprint Triathlon at the Ski Ranch near our home. It was an all ladies meet with about 300 entries. Callie did pretty good for the little amount of training she has been able to do. She actually took 2nd in her age catagory. I'm proud of her... :-) There were women of all ages competing in the triathlon, the oldest was 71 years young. I was standing near the 71 year old and another lady very near her age, it was funny because the these two ladies truned to me and one said, "what do you think of women our age competing in an event like this?" ... I think they caught me stareing at them in amazment as to how fit and good they looked. All I could say was "I think it's amazing and wonderful!" I had no idea there were so many people who were involved in triathlons and running until reciently.
For the run...Callie and I went out for a 2 miler at about 10:00 pm for her to loosen up and for me to see how my legs felt. She was sore and my knee is still bothering me (plus the arch of my left foot). My plan is to run fairly short runs this week with Callie while she's back and also see if my knee and foot will stop bothering me.
