I did It. I finshed my first Triathon We had so much fun!! We left victoria about 12:30 Sat. got as far as mill bay before we stopped for lunch..Subway. Then drove up to Qualicum and the ravensong rec center. What a great center..very nice pool. We got our shirts and numbers 188 and went to bike check. And I found out that my handle bars we totaly loose. So had to get them fixed. Then it stared to rain...we were going to go for a bike ride, but none of use were keen to ride in the rain. So we went to the hotel and checked in. Nice room but weird. It was the managers suite but had been chenged to a room. The front door was in the laundry room and then there were all these doors that were locked and then 29 stairs in a sprial style stair case to the kitchen. But it was only 90.00 for the three of us so about 30 each. then we went back to the rec center and it cleared up so we walked the trail that was the run.

YAAA HOOO

We got a call today saying that we made it in to the race!!! So training is really back on!! I had a little bit of a slack week...well three days in a row!! I even had chips. So we went for a ride tonight and I will swim and maybe run tomorrow.

And this is how I will feel after!!!

We went out to a movie and the babysitter said that he was really good and went to bed no problem. When we came home he must of heard us and woke up so we brought him out and like two min later this is how he was!!! SO CUTE!

AHHHH

Well people I have three weeks until I might be doing the tri...ya you read that right...might. We have hit a little snag. We Janet, Julie and I sent our paper work in almost two months ago. about 6 weeks ago I said to the ladies that I didn't see our names on the confirmed lists. So Janet said she would send an e-mail to see why. Well the next morning she sent a note out and then took her daughter to school. On the way back see picked up her mail and then sat down at the computer and saw a note back saying that She ( the lady who is in charge of registration) had not seen ANYTHING from us!!! Then Janet looked at her mail and saw our envelope. Not enough postage!!! So Janet called the lady told her that story about the postage and about how it is my first tri and was there any thing we could do. Well we are on the wait list....#2,3 and 4. The lady is number two!!! She also said that in the 12 years that she had been doing this every one on the wait list has gotten in!!! So the race is three weeks away and we still have not heard. We are hoping to hear this week. If not there is another one July 15 but is is longer and harder and STARTS AT 6:30AM!!!! So pray please...I have worked so hard and really want to do this. Thanks Dayna
