Well, I've decided to do a Triathlon. I'm planning to do two in May - one week after the first and these will come one month after my third 5K in April. I've been in training now for a couple of weeks and I feel great. I swam a straight 500 yds yesterday at 12:26 which I thought was pretty good although I did have to do Freestyle and Breast strokes to finish. My goal is to do work on more Freestyle and of course, less time. I bought a new bike for my triathlon and am looking forward to putting some miles on it very soon - like tomorrow. Maybe I can get my son out for a ride with me. I'm doing a long run today so biking is out.

All in all I'm feeling great and have started to lose inches as well as some more weight. I've maintained my weight loss over the year and while I wanted to lose more weight I'm happy to have maintained. Since school started I've been going to the gym 5-6 days a week and I'm getting stronger both in mind, body and spirit.

I'm looking forward to accomplishing my goals: losing weight, feeling great and finishing my first triathlon and beating my own time for the second one. Wish me luck...
