vineman...delayed...

Stingray -> Foot -> Pain -> Hit Tendon -> Out one month of training -> No Vineman this year -> :(



you follow that? okay... so, no Vineman this year for me. But because I'm out for a month of hard training doesn't mean my life will end. I've decided I'll do Nautica instead.

Nora, any news from the doc about your shoulder?

UPDATE: Nevermind, Nautica is sold out...

Vineman Support

Hi All,
I am going to try to make it up there to cheer you all on during the race. I will find out in three weeks whether or not I need surgery and if I don't need surgery, I'll be there!!!

Maybe I should wear a Wanna be Vineman Support shirt =).

Have Fun!
Nora

Okay... 39 days to go and now it's time to think about what we're wearing for the race...

Marc and I talked and thought about doing tshirt/tank.

Here are your options:





For Girls:



  1. This
  2. Another option


On the shirt, it will say: "Wannabe's..."

We'll get all the same color...

Swim Clinics


Last weekend Kimmy and I did the Pacific Coast Tri Swim Clinic at Newport Beach. At first I thought we were crazy for attempting something like this but at the end I am really glad we did.

We learned a lot of valuable information such as how to breath, how to get in, out of the ocean water, and how to just swim in that type of conditions. They also did a timed swim for everyone and showed alot of info on transitions techniques. (I missed out on that stuff cause I was hunted down by a 10foot long sting ray who nearly killed me. Okay, not really but I did get stung and it did hurt like hell.)

Would I recommend this swim clinic to others? HELL YES! I am going back in mid July to finish up the clinic and also will be checking out the clinic before Triforlife.
