Gold Nugget Triathlon

On Sunday, team Shebeast powered through another Gold Nugget Triathlon. I was siked to see some marked improvement in the swim, even if my time was still double that of the winner. I had to hold back my speed demon Orbea a bit to stay with the team, that dang bike just wants to go, go, go. With some encourgement from Scout and Ally I managed to complete the run without taking any breaks. I remember thinking that an oxygen tank version of a camelback would have come in very handy. Scout chatted away in attempt to keep me motivated, and I responded in mostly nods and grunts. Sadly, I was not able to participate in her cheerful rendition of "I saw a bear... in tennis shoes..." Maybe next year. The ER tri is only a few weeks away. It should be a hilly bike ride, but a shorter run. The 60K Tour de Cure ride next week, and the Ride for Life on July 19. Looks to be an active, pedal happy summer. That works for me.
