What have I gotten myself into?!?!?

During a few work parties and some glasses of wine, I agreed to participate in a triathlon. A. Triathlon. Yeah.

It's actually not quite as bad as it sounds. It's a team-relay, so I'll only have to do on leg of the race - the cycling. And it's a sprint distance, so 17.5 km. But as with all those things we agree to in those moments, you're never quite sure how serious people are - if everyone says "I'll do it if you'll do it," will you actually do it? First day back at work, we signed up.

So on a (hopefully) mild April afternoon, I will be triathloning. I figured I should hit the gym and see how long it might take one to pedal 17.5 km, or if one could do it at all for that matter. The result wasn't terrible, but wasn't great either. I definitely have something to work towards over the next 3 months...

I didn't quite realize...

exactly how long it has been since I last posted... I would have sworn up and down that there would have at least been an obligatory "Yippee! I started my job & it's my birthday" post but apparently not...

So what HAVE I been up to the past 3 months that's keeping me so busy? The aforementioned job - the past few months have been super busy but it'll start to slow down after Remembrance Day (or so I keep telling myself); I moved into a new apartment which has come together quite nicely; spending time re-acquainting myself with Calgary; and general day-to-day goings on...

In future I will try not to be such a slacker...
