Slacking Off


Went to Maui or a two week work vacation. Tended to alot of family and household matters. So it wasn't all mai tais on the beach at sunset. However, I did have two weeks in Hawaii so how bad can it be :) Early morning runs on the West Maui coastline. Hikes in the West Maui mountains and never running into another person. The crowds are jostling for a snorkeling spot at Honolua Bay. I also discovered a cool activity--Swimming with goggles instead of snorkeling with a mask. I felt I could swim for hours it was so much more fun and interesting than the pool.

Danskin Triathlon Seattle 2010


All signed up up for the Danskin triathlon as a relay team! I did the full triathlon in 1996. Attached photo to prove it! This time I'm doing the swim portion because it is my weakest sport and I'd really like to improve in open water swimming. Actually, I hyperventilate--not sure if it's because of open water or the water temperature. Swimming in Seattle's lakes or Puget Sound is not like the warm waters of Hawaii.
