What's next??

I have done 1 sprint triathlon, 1 indoor triathlon and 1 aquabike race.  I really enjoyed the training for these events, especially the bike and MOST especially the swim.  It's kinda funny because my husband and I have done tons of 5ks, several other distances up to 15k, and I have done my bucket list half-marathon (1 and done, baby!), and all the run training needed to stay reasonably ready to run, but the running is my LEAST favorite by far. 

I have signed up for the Space Coast sprint triathlon in Cocoa Beach on May 19, 2019.  This is the inaugural event, and will be my inaugural triathlon in Florida.  So consistent training will be starting soon.  My goal is to finish (as has been my goal since I was an age group swimmer, no matter the distance, I just want to finish without dying!) and a secondary goal is to be stronger off the bike into the run.  I've got about 4 months and I am feeling so much better being here in Florida, even running in the heat is something I have gotten more used to. 

My daughter is running in the Publix Marathon in Feb with a friend of hers and they will be staying here.  My Mom is coming today to spend a couple months with us, and my other daughter is planning to come down from SC to visit while everyone is here.   I love that we can offer a "winter escape" for friends and family. 

Also have some inspiration for more crafting!! Got some goodies for Christmas and will be making some gifts and decorations.   Can't wait to get back at it again.  Oh, and since I damaged my phone, I pretty much lost all my craft pics from this Xmas season, so will be posting here.  Phones don't like swimming anywhere near as much as I do!!
