Triathlete? Me again?



The photo proves one thing only - that I crossed the finish line at the Wharf to Wharf run. Six long miles. Big deal.

Next is the Mermaid triathlon. Yes, TRI, as in three events. It's a "do-able" event, I tell myself. In terms of distances. And it's right in my own backyard. Swim in the Monterey Bay, about a 1/4 mile around the goofy old cement boat. Then bike for 11 miles. Finally, a 2 1/2 mile run. Anyone can do that, right?

Maybe I'll be the only person in my age group. That would be great! I'll win a trophy! First place finisher in the 55+ age group AND the last person to cross the finish line. What a distinction!
