Tootin' My Own Horn

Y Lazyman Triathlon: 6 Weeks - 112 cycle miles, 26.2 run/walk miles, 12.5 row

I did: 160 cycle, 60 run/walk, 13.5 row

This was indeed a "lazyman." I feel like it held me accountable to get to the Y but in reality I didn't do anything I wouldn't have done anyway except for the rowing. Which, as it turns out, I strongly dislike. Obviously. Really going overboard there.

I'm not the type for the real deal. I don't think. But, I can see myself doing something much more challenging. Say, walking across the U.S. (simulated) in a summer. Or something like that. Or possibly getting certified to teach cycle. Eeek. I don't feel "in shape" enough to take that plunge.

I had my husband take pictures of the shirt. He thought 'shirt' meant butt.

I'm sure the DH thought your butt was worth focusing on! I'd take a picture of mine if it looked like that!

Way to go, Shannon! I want to run a marathon or something, but it scares me to be held accountable. You're hot, I'd take photos of your butt too :)

As others have already mentioned...at least it's a cute butt. Never thought I'd say that to you, but hey. Anyway.
