Triathalon training

We have had more than 10 workout sessions and still going strong. We are getting stronger and faster and gaining more endurance each workout.
If my life wasn't busy enough. I decided to particitpate in Savior of The World. 4 stakes are getting together to do it. Jarom and Mary are also in the play and Parley is on the stage crew. It will be tons of fun. I get to be Mary's Mother in the play. I thought that was pretty ironic because I have been Mary's Mother for over 9 years. I was not expecting to get a part. I am a bit nervous I don't mind the singing part, but the speaking is a different story. I am excited to get to know everyone in the play. It will be a wonderful spiritual experience. It will also be fun to have some of my children enjoy it with me.

Hi, We are still going strong with the training. I figure if I keep others updated that we will keep going. It is still January after all. Jen is amazing. Saturday we did 3 miles on the bike. I ran 1 mile and Jen ran/walked almost 1 mile and we swam about 10 laps in the pool. We also lifted weights. We just keep plugging along. The sad thing is that I gained 3 pounds. I hope it is muscle. Our reward is going to be education week at BYU. That keeps us motivated. 1 week without house work and time to ourselves. We will also get to listen to great speakers. We will also be very healthy and strong.

Today was the first day of triathalon training. Jen Warner and I are going to do the Share a smile triathlon in Orem. We are well on our way. We got up at 5:00 a.m. and headed to the South Davis Recreation Center and rode bikes and ran and swam and lifted weights. Go Us!!! If anyone wants to join us feel free. It feels so great! Oh ya, Jay came too, but he is not doing the triathalon. He says he sinks instead of swims. I will keep you all updated on our progress. I realize this is January, and most goals are broken by February, but we are going to stick with it to the end.
