Thank You

I am going to take a vacation from posting for a while. Mostly, because there is so little going on right now that I just don't have much to say. But more importantly I think, is because I plan to take a break from triathlon. At the very least, I'm just not going to think about it for a while. I've been pretty ambivolent about the whole tri season, and while I expected to snap out of it once I started training more, it's just not clicking. Instead of beating myself up about it, I'm going to give into it and move on.

Now, I don't want to give the impression that my Type A competitive personality has been quieted all together. I may have been unmotivated to get into the pool, but I still ran 85 miles in January. I still have several road races on the books, including the Coeur d' Alene and Spokane Half Marathons (where I plan to break 2 hours)and Bloomsday 12k run. I plan to spend a lot more time on my bike, hopefully completing my first Century ride.

What is most important about this post is that I want to thank you. Thank you to everyone who took the time to read this sporatic jumble of thoughts and experiences. Thank you for your comments and emails. Thanks to you, I was motivated, educated and inspired. And thank you for allowing me the pleasure of reading and commenting on your personal blogs. Trust me, you'll still see me now and then. You can't get rid of me that easy!

After spending this winter enjoying the company of my partner Urs, I've decided that life is too short to have regrets. 2006 was a stressful year. My folks were both quite ill, my 85 year old aunt had a long list of "to do's" for me, the RV Park looked a little rough around the edges, Urs had a progression in her cancer, and I was always playing catch-up with my triathlon training. This year, my goal is to run because I can, ride my bike because I want to, and spend as much quality time with Urs as I possibly can.

Keep in mind that we will be in Madison, WI. in September to cheer on the RaceAthlete folks at Ironman Wisconsin. I'd love to meet up with any of the folks that have included me in their triathlon family.

I can always be contacted at my email address: barb@cheneyrv.com If you drop by here and noone is home, feel free to drop me a line.
