One week after my first duathlon, and another year older (yesterday was my birthday), I just signed up for my first triathlon to be held on July 22, 2012. Next week it will be 8 weeks from the day I decided to begin my journey back to health and my goal to take on new challenges. If someone told me 8 weeks ago that I would be doing this, I would have laughed and thought to myself "I wish". It's not a wish anymore. After weeks of hard work, it's a challenge that I am taking on.
I am happy to report that I am feeling strong and empowered. There are women that are emailing me on how to get started and just like many women inspired me to get on this track, I am inspiring others to start as well. That makes me incredibly happy. I hope others join in with their journeys so they too can inspire all of us. I was once feeling tired, heavy and slow. That has been replaced with energetic, swifter and ready. Ready for new experiences. Ready to try harder. Ready for a triathlon. Bring it!
