triathalon training

My neighbor has talked me into doing a triathalon with her. It is sponsored by the Northfield Athletic Club. For those of you who know me, you know I do not exercise! I hate exercising. I think that I would really like running because I've heard it is a great stress reliever. But I hate it! It's a 500 meter swim, 9 mile bike ride and 3 mile run, so it's definately do-able for a novice like myself!

Today was the first day of training. We have started with the Couch to 5K program. Well, for the first day, it wasn't too bad except for the fact that it was raining!! Our 25 minute run/walk was totally in the rain. That must mean we are dedicated, right?!

I'll keep you updated on the training. My goal is simply to finish the triathalon, no matter how stinking long it takes me!
