Alright folks, first of all I want to apologize for the lack of an entry in quite some time. Secondly, I’d like to warn you to not get too excited yet. This will be a short entry. A very short entry in fact. The reason? It’s near midnight, and I’m tired. Why so tired? Well, I recently registered for the 2007 Kiawah Island Triathlon. It’s an Olympic distance tri, which means 1.5km swim, 45km bike, and a 10km run. Wow!

How might I do this? I’m training fairly rigorously (for what I’m used to anyway). Since it’s my first triathlon and I’m not quite sure what I’m doing, and am quickly learning there is lots to learn, I have taken to none other than… the internet for help. I picked up a training schedule at beginnertriathlete.com and found a rather entertaining podcast and blog at zentriathlon.com.

Hopefully those links will keep you entertained for the next day or so until I update with a more detailed explanation for all of this craziness. Oh yea, I also took a little time to tweak my style sheet and uploaded my about page, which you can access via the navigation at the top of the site.

Ah yes, before I forget.. this one is especially for you Poppie..

You folks that followed my AT journal back in 2005 may remember a fellow hiker by the name of “Daytripper”. Well, she’s back at it again. Except this time she’s on the CT, or for those not in the know, the Colorado Trail. If my memory serves me correctly, that’s around 454 miles or something like that (too tired to use google right now). So, go check out her CT 07 trail journal and cheer her on.

I’m out.. Peace.
