Which events?

So now that my legs are cooperating, I need to decide what events I want to train for this year. I still really want to do a marathon, but am scared to register now because I am afraid that I will jinx my legs. I would also like to do at least one triathlon...maybe Seafair sprint. A friend of mine is going to do her first triathlon this year, so I said I would do that event. What else? I want this to be an awesome year!!! Decisions, decisions, decisions...

First Track Workout

Last year I decided to join a triathlon group and get some help with my running...well, my shins did not cooperate, so I didn't get to do as much as a wanted. Now, post-surgery, I am joining up with the group again. Tonight was the first track workout of the year for TNMultisports and I was so happy to be there! It was a great turnout...the team is big! I was a slow as molasses, but I was there, and my shins DID NOT hurt! I can't tell you how excited I am! I was nervous when I started knowing that I would be really slow and scared that the pain would be back...but I talked myself out of that and tried to relax. So, about 3 miles tonight (1 jogging at a snail's pace and 2 walking) in the books. Yay!

Thanks Teresa for hanging in there with me and my injuries and a HUGE thanks to Dr. Brian Perry who took my pain seriously and kept at it until we found out what was going on. Jogging without pain is a new experience--one that I could definitely get used to!

Here's to an athletic 2010!!
