My big announcement...

... is NOT that I am walking in the 3-day. Sorry!! Susan is walking again and we're going to try and raise more money for her instead.

In terms of something healthy, my hubby and I are committed to doing the duathalon. What the heck is that? It's like a triathalon with the exception of the swimming. My hubby sucks at swimming. When he first mentioned doing this with Kevin, I asked him the swimming question like, "Are you going to have to swim?" and he said "No, just bike and run on 2 terrains." I said, "Good cause you'd sink like a anchor!" He agrees which is why Kevin and Steve decided to do the duathalon. Unfortunately, Kevin got seriously hurt at work and can't do it - he can't even walk for 5-6 months. So, I volunteered to do it instead. Steve was so excited about doing it but won't do it by himself so I am going to get healthy training with him. The course is something like: 6 mi run, 14 mi bike ride, 2 mi run on terrain. I've started training for the bike portion because Kevin loaned us this contraption that my bike is sitting on so that I can ride stationary. I watch the news or whatever when I ride for 30 min in the morning. It's too freakin' cold to do anything outside at this point...

Keep guessing...
