It doesn't hurt to TRI

One week ago today, I completed my very first triathalon!  I'm still amazed I crossed the finish line on my own and didn't need to be carried off on a stretcher.  Quite the opposite, I had so much fun and enjoyed the company of the 12 other ladies on my team so much!  We are already planning on doing the Gold Nugget again next year.  Who would have ever thought it?  Go Valley Rookies!

It was so sweet to hear the girls shouting from the sidelines, "Go mom!"  Better yet was Ella's hand slipping in mine right after I crossed the finish line.
