I had signed up as a volunteer to help Deanne out. However, when I contacted Deanne about more details for the Strathmore Ladies Triathlon she asked me if I wanted to swim as part of a relay team. Only 500m so while I hadn’t been in the pool for a month, I figured why not. […]

I had such high hopes for race day, June 18th but well it just wasn’t my day. Rather then rewrite things the best way to sum up the day was the email I sent to my coach after returning home. Today was a DNF. I had a good swim. Not sure but I think I […]
