3 Addictions...

Addiction Number 1 - the Summer Olympics - especially Baltimore native Michael Phelps...he is kicking some major butt...and that gold medal in the freestyle relay...WAS AMAZING!!

Addiction Number 2 - Triathlons...or races in general. Tonight I signed Jimmy and I up for 4 races...yes FOUR!

First let me say Jimmy got pumped watching, Jeannie, Megs and I run our triathlon the other weekend and wants to do one too. So he wants to do one together -- though he is not a big swimmer -- ok, I have known him for 4 1/2 years now and have never seen him swim a lap. So I was on a mission to find a triathlon that he could do...and I found it!!

Here is our race schedule...

September 1 - 5K Race on Labor Day

September 14 - 5K Race

September 21 - TRIATHLON!! 400 meter (Pool Swim...Jimmy was very happy about that!) 10 mile bike and 5K run

October 11 - Marathon Relay -- Yep we signed up for the Baltimore Marathon Relay - so there is a team of 4 of us - Jimmy, our friend Katea, my boss/friend Steve and I who are running the distance of a marathon divided by 4. So I will run the 1st leg of 6.1 miles

I am pumped. I am going to get my butt into better shape if it is the last thing I do!!

And now for my 3rd addiction...



She is now sitting up on her own and drinking out of a sippy cup!! She is growing up so fast!!!
