We went to Brynn's work yesterday to get flu vaccinations because they were free. I have never had one before so I wasn't sure what to expect, but I certainly didn't expect what happened ( Read more... )

Hydration was going fine, I was taking in gels according with my plan, and everything was going smoothly. We get back to the car and switch out our water bottles [thanks go to ( Read more... )

Since we all know you can do a triathlon with nothing more than some decent clothes [as in ... NOT JEANS] and a bike that moves forward when you pedal, I think it's important to point out the hidden costs of doing a triathlon.

Swimming:1. An adequate swim suit. Nothing fancy is required, I got mine at Target for like $12 and I wish I would have ( Read more... )
