I met Kathleen of Forging Ahead at BlogHer ‘08. We were standing at a table the first morning, trying to eat our breakfast and talk and talk and talk. Early on in our conversation - we learned we had something very special in common - triathloning! Our connection was quick and natural… and lasting!
Well… Kathleen’s time has come. On Saturday (tomorrow!) - she will be competing in her first triathlon! And it’s not the short sprint triathlon like I did my first time (OK - first 5 times!)…. NOOOOO. She’s doing a biggie. My first tri was a 1/2 mile swim, 12 mile bike and 3 mile run… Kathleen will be swimming an entire mile (in the ocean, I am not brave enough to swim in the ocean), biking 34 miles and running 10 miles! Her tri-distances are between the Olympic and an Half-Iron triathlon distances!
I just want to send out a great big - Good Luck to Kathleen, Bert and her coach! You guys are awesome! Kathleen, I am so proud of you. You have worked so hard! You are going to do incredible things tomorrow! Go! Go! GO!!! :)
