Tonight, Shannon and I decided to take advantage of the nice weather before it's gone. So after work, I took her to Edworthy park. She rode her bike and I ran for about 40 minutes. My ankle is getting much better. :) My energy has returned too. I'm dying to run!
We're going back tomorrow night. Got to get a few more in before the snow falls.
I spoke with Karen tonight. She & her husband are back from Europe. They both completed the Berlin marathon. I can't beleive that she was able to run a marathon only two weeks after Muskoka. Crazy. Anyway, Karen has signed up for Muskoka again and I wish I could too. I'm doing that race again someday. We were also discussing Lake Placid plans for 2009. I'm peeling again but I'll need to find another volunteer job this year. I need four hours to get in the short line to sign up for 2010. I have to do Lake Placid, I learned to swim after watching my first Ironman there.
My head is swimming with possibilities. :)

About Me
- Leaha
- I am a former "runner" that has taken a leap into the triathlon world. I have completed 5 marathons and more than 10 half-marathons plus many other running races of various shapes and sizes. :) My wonderful, energetic, inspiring Ironman friend, Karen introduced me to the triathlon world. It is in her "impossible to fill" footsteps that I follow. I had only completed a couple of sprints and tri-a-tri's and then (in a delusional moment) signed up for the inaugural Muskoka 70.3 race. So, I hired a coach (Greg Bradley) and with his help (and my swim coach Jill - she is so patient with my endless failings in the pool!), I have finished both the Lake Chaparral Olympic and the Muskoka 70.3 races for the 2008 season.

Hi Susi,
That sounds like fun.
I'm not sure I'm ready for a full yet though. I need to sort out my food issues. Plus, an ocean swim with no wetsuit. I'd need a pool noodle! :)
