Starting anew

Well after a long drawn out "break", I honestly believe by the need of a mental not a physical break, I am back at it.  This time however I am coming out of this break with a goal. 

Near mid-December, Nancy (my wife) asked me about doing the Timberman Tri with her next August '11.  After talking about it a while, we both realized that it is more important for me to be her "pit-crew" than participating with her.  But it did get me to thinking about jumping back in the Tri pool (no pun intended) again. 
Seems like yesterday, but it actually was about a 4 or 5 year span back in the mid-80's when I was doing about 7 to 10 races a year.  Although I did actually do the Sharon MA Triathlon back in 2000.  But that was more of a curiosity race, as my training and poor running portion showed.

So I am giving myself 31 days (starting January 1st) to see if the desire I had in December (and now 7 days and 3 runs in) is still there and I actually want to give this a go.  Hopefully by this time next week, I will have 3 more runs (not counting the miles I put on refereeing) and at least 2 swims under my belt.

Well, til then
Be Well ~ Sank
