Hey guys,
So, as of this week, I got a very nice surprise in my e-mail inbox-I've qualified for the 2014 Olympic Distance US National Championships in Milwaukee, Wisconsin!! For my performance at Lake Royale of this year(the one where I broke my wrist starting the run), I had qualified and could run at Olympic Nationals! Now, this was super exciting to experience, just getting that e-mail was really cool, like eye-opening, almost as if it was a reward for such a hard 2013. But you all know how tough the sport of triathlon is, physically, mentally, and emotionally-but don't forget financially! I am regretful to say that due to my current financial situation I will not be able to afford to go to Milwaukee this year, but hopefully I will still be able to save up some money for years down the road. It's hard to fund all of your races and gear and travel! So, an up and a down, but regardless, this is a plus-definitely a good experience to have had! Maybe I'll be able to swing getting to a Sprint National Championship sometime down the road, we all can hope! Just an update.
Happy training guys!
Through all our races, you've gotta have some fun out of it. This is my first time just casually swimming in White Lake.
