A few short months ago I could barely swim, did not even have a bike to ride, and didn't know what the heck I was doing. I could not have done this without some great friends that I made in the CoWs and Swimmers groups: Bert - thank you for getting me started, introducing me to the groups, and pushing me in the pool -- that one session with you and I realize that my lack of endurance was in my head and it all just "clicked" after that...now I just need to work on speed :) so glad I decided to go to yoga class! DC - thank you for helping me pick out my bike, getting me on the road, and being a great encourager and friend! Jon - thank you for talking so much during our rides, and for almost dropping me -- which frustrated me but made me stronger :) Jim - thank you for riding in with me during my first group ride and telling me I'd be a good rider if I only got a decent bike, and for noticing that nasty wind sheer in the parking lot at the ride of silence :) David W - thanks for not laughing at me during our Swim America sessions and for always telling me that I'm getting better! There are lots of others in the CoWs and Swimmers groups who have been encouraging and supportive. For all of you reading this who have never joined a group ride or are intimidated to try something new, take it from me that you will never find a more supportive group of individuals who will show newbies the ropes because they love cycling and swimming and want to see people succeed and love it as much as they do! Now I'm hooked and can't wait to be the last (run) leg of a relay for the Kerr Lake Tri with David W (swim) and Jon (bike) in a few weeks. We will get out there with DC, Dan, and Chris, (others?) who are doing the full tri. Then on to the Smithfield Three Little Pigs Tri the following weekend!! -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of david caudle Sent: Sunday, May 22, 2011 2:00 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [COWs] lindas first triathlon Wow what a tri this was. Almost 1100 ladies and linda comes in 78 with a time of 59:58. Her goal was under an hour so she did that and if the pool had not be so jammed with swimmers she would have come in sooner. The spilts have not been posted yet but i know her bike was fast cause i just about missed the blaze as she past. She is already talking about the next one....watchout boys this "little" cow is on the move. Great job linda and great ride at SN you guys....
