My Husband is crazy!!!
If you have been keeping up with my blog you know that Eric and a couple of his friends just finished a 1/2 Ironman about two weeks ago. I thought they were crazy before but now I have personal knowledge of that fact. Eric has been hinting at me becoming involved with the Triathlons. I thought it might be fun just to go ahead a go swimming a couple times and maybe a bike ride or two. So today I met up with Eric for a swim during his lunch break. Now these guys swam 1.2 miles for their event. Today I swam 200 meters in 10 minutes and I thought I was going to die. My stomach felt so sick. I can not imagine swimming any further than that. They are nuts. Whats worse is I must be nuts because I told Eric I would go again on Monday. This is insane. Someone needs to save me from my foolishness. HELP!!!

Yeah for you Linda, do it for the invalid! I started swimming because I couldn't run and it SUCKED at first. I could not go half the length of the pool on my face without standing up, but now I can go forever so if this swimming wuss can do it, so can you! Do it for me!

Wow, props to you Linda! You know how un-athletic I am, so I'm extra impressed with your swimming. I have to think back to the Olympics as to what 200 meters means, because I have never done it! BUT, you are one that one has to be shown something once and you can do it. I've always admired that about you.
I'm so excited! You can totally do it. Its a great time to start, you have plenty of time to get ready. Be careful....it's ADDICTING!
Be careful Linda, you seem to be falling into the trap! Good work - keep it up. We'll be cheering for you next time.
