It has been quite a few months since my last posting. I was reminded
twice in one day to get this updated. So here it is - What has this
Triathlete been up to since December.
Well the beginning of January I participated in a one day tri-clinic. It was so much fun.
Shout out to Athletes Lounge
for putting together such a great event. I am pretty certain swim
starts won't be nearly as scary as they have been in the past. Being
squished between to burly guys swimming across the pool surely cured
me!!!

| Nervously
listening to instruction - See those two guys behind me. They crushed
me several times in the head. I'm certain I had bruises along the ribs
as well. |

Late
January Eli became really sick. It was pretty scary and we learned
that his immune system was very weak and he wasn't building up the
antibodies he needed to fight even the simplest of infections.
Since
late January my priorities shifted to Eli and training fell by the way
side; wow! that is such an understatement. To put it into perspective,
from January 14 - March 4 Eli saw a Doctor (Primary, Specialist, etc) a
total of 21 times. Crazy times....but all of that is behind us now.
April
will be our fresh start to the New Year and Eli is doing great. Eli is
still going through a gamut of test so the hubby and I are taking
turns getting our workouts in and I'm trying to fit it what I can at
lunch time. Not nearly enough training to prepare for triathlon season
but I will fit in what I can.
On April 14th Ironman announces the 100 lottery slots for Kona. Anxiously awaiting the results. This may change my training program/priorities should I be so lucky as to be picked for one of those slots.
