This week has been a really productive one already so far.  I have registered for the Azalea Sprint Triathlon which is in Wilmington, NC on March 9th.  That's going to be the only Tri that I'll be able to do before I attempt to do a Half Iron at White Lake in April.  The half is exactly half of the distances I'll have to do in October (1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike, and 13.1 mile run).  I'm not looking forward to loosing the training time for tapering and recovery, but I think the confidence boost of completing will end up being worth it.  For anyone that wants to go to White Lake to spectate, there's a bunch of camping and log cabin places up there so get up with me and we can work something out.  I am leaning towards camping out in a tent, but we'll see if I can sell Amanda on it.  I haven't registered for the half yet, it's $160 that I don't get back if I were to get hurt training over the next couple months, so I'll wait till it gets closer and I'm pretty sure I'll be good to participate.  I'll keep you posted.  Other than races, I've received my first 2 donations this week as well as sold almost 40 shirts!  At this pace I think I'll be good to hit the  $5k goal in October.  As always, thanks again for stopping by.
