Swim Bike Run

In a week from tomorrow the race is on! Kris and I are doing the Spudman Triathlon! This race defiantly snuck up on us. We have been slackers not quite training like we should have. Wish us luck....hopefully neither of us drowned.
I must say that I never thought I would ever participate in a triathlon. Another amazing thing Kris has introduced me too. We took swimming lessons together last fall which was really difficult for me to learn. I couldn't even put my face in the water. I know, I am a big baby. After hours and hours with a coach I can finally swim decent. I must say, there is such a sense of freedom gliding through water. Never thought swimming could be so fun.
When we head out to Africa this November for a Humanitarian trip we are also going to take a small detour. Before heading home we are planning to Scuba dive in Sharma Shek. Kris is already scuba certified. I start my classes the end on August. I am really nervous about it but everyone assures me it is so simple and safe. I am grateful that I have a husband who loves to travel and has such a passion for trying new things. He really gets me out of my comfort zone and has given me the encouragement to accomplish things I never thought were possible.
