Triathlon season is just around the corner, are you diving into your training headfirst? Swimming, cycling and running, it’s not hard for me to say which part of this trifecta of endurance sports I like best – that’s running. Natch! Of course, I’ll admit right here and now that I’ve never actually done and entire triathlon and that’s because I’m too chicken to do the swim portion. Yeah, that’s right, scared. I was traumatized by childhood diving lessons and now as a grown woman, I don’t like (make that won’t) dive in or turn my head under water. Don’t ask; I’m working through it.
Anyway, I do enjoy being the runner on a triathlon relay team. It’s fun to cheer on everyone in the first two events and the blast through the crowd with fresh legs! On May 27th, I’ll be lacing up my running shoes to run on a relay team once again in the Capital of Texas Triathlon here in Austin. It’s a fun event that happens in and around Ladybird Lake with the spectacular downtown Austin skyline as a backdrop. Plus, the post-race festival is pretty cool in that weird and wonderful way that is the ATX. You should come!
To celebrate swimming, cycling and running, I’m giving away a $100 gift card to Orca.com. The winner can treat herself (or himself) to a new running top, cycle shorts or swim gear. Or, put the gift card toward a new, shiny wetsuit. It’s your choice!
