I think I sometimes delude myself into thinking that I am much younger and in shape than I really am. I was a competitive swimmer for a lot of years--and for some reason, I think that I can still jump into the pool, swim 3000 yards and still feel great at the end. Well, I think I have forgotten that my last REAL swim practice was over 11 years ago. Yeah, I swam 1000 yards this morning and I am TIRED! I timed a couple of my laps near then end of my swim--just about sent me into a mid-life crisis. When did I get so SLOW??? (And I do realize that 29 is too young for a mid-life crisis.)
Seriously--very humbling morning for me at the Kroc Center. And I have a LOT of work to do before August!

whats going on in August?
I'm doing the Danskin triathlon in Seattle. I needed a little motivation to get the baby weight off and to get back into shape after being pregnant and not doing anything!
