Blake and I are doing a triathlon this morning. I'm really just posting this so you can all laugh. In two hours I will be swimming in a very cold lake. but then, here's the best part, when I get out of the lake, blake will do the rest - we're doing a relay!
pretty much the story behind this is that our friend Dave (aka Jackie's husband) signed up for the triathlon, and told Blake he should do it. So we hmmed and haa-ed and I told Blake I would watch the kiddos, he could do it. But then when I went to sign him up earlier this week (a little last minute, I know), they had a just do the 5k option. and I was like, oh, I could do that... but then we would need a babysitter and yada yada. but I felt like I shouldn't be a lazy bum... but we would have to be there at 6:00 am... but the babies have been waking up at 5 am anyways, so it's not that much earlier... so on thursday, I was at my parents' house, and I asked them. they said okay, so Thursday night I went to sign us up, discovered that signing us both up for the relay was cheaper than blake triathlon + me 5k, so I did that instead. and yesterday I thought, oh, well I could swim... so that's the plan! blake actually likes running so he'll do the 5k and I'll swim.
pretty funny huh? blake is dropping the kiddos off at my parents' now, and I'm pumping. and now I'm done, so gotta go put my tri-suit on now. I can't believe we're really doing this - I have no idea how a relay works, but I guess we'll find out!
