In St Petersburg, St Anthony's Triathlon

Here I am at the Tradewinds hotel with the New York team for Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team in Training!! Just came back from the Pasta (carbo load) Pasta Party to jump-start the team. Tomorrow all these people will be at the St Anthony's Triathlon to swim, cycle and run. Exciting!! I'm going to cheer them on so don't be surprised if I lose my voice when I get back to New York.

The one thing I learned this weekend is that success is measured in so many ways--this from one of the speakers, Dave Scott (6-time Ironman Champ). I have to admit that I was disappointed when I dropped out due to my lack of swim skill in the water. But I wouldn't know what capable of doing if I never started training. But Now I have something to look forward to next year…
