Tri the Parks-Blalock Lakes

Tri the Parks is a series on triathlon held in Georgia state parks. This one happened to be in nearby Newnan. This triathlon was a bit longer as it was not a super sprint but a sprint.

600 meter swim
14 mile bike
3.1 mile run







I am the closest "red" cap.






























Somewhere out there!





















The bike started out with a hill and continued with all rolling hills. Funny, I don't ever remember going DOWN any!





















The run even started with a hill. Yes, that is an althete already finished and enjoying a snack!





















I, we, finished!!!!

Warrior Dash Divas

Since I said "yes" to a triathlon I have foundmyself n the strangest places. Joanne, the Super Trainer Extradonaire, mentioned something about the Warrior Dash, and it must have been over heated that day because I said sure. Well I am glad I did because it rocked!
The "race" was suppose to be a 5k, thankfully it was shorter, with 11 obstacles. You can see one below. The best obstacle by far was jumping over FIRE!!!




The divas before....yet the Viking hat was included!!!


After.....notice the color of the once white shirt.

Peachtree City Super Sprint Triathlon Debut

Well it all started with a 5k run in February. After successful completion of the run my trainer says something like...."So, you can swim right? and you know how to bike, you just finished a 5k so how about a triathlon? I just laughed but signed up....
