Crasharita

Saturday's workout was my second time trying out my new clipless pedals. It was also the cause of my first clipless bike crash...ugh. There went my ego!! I was going up a hill and tried to move into an easier gear. Now I know I should have changed gears before approaching the hill but for some reason I misjudged how much effort the hill would take. I am sure you can envisioin what happened next. I pretty much stopped cold in my tracks and fell over sideways (in slow motion, of course!) and crashed into the road. My hand is pretty black and blue from bending my thumb backwards but otherwise, I survived the crash. My mentees must wonder about me.... I have done this before.

On a more fun note our fall triathlon team from Treasure Island had a reunion get together at Ken's house last night. It was so wonderful to see our friends and hear how they were doing. We found out Chris, our coach, will be coaching again next fall. David and I decided we will definitely do another stint with Team In Training (and yes, fundraising). We enjoyed our experience so much with Chris and TNT...how could we pass up another opportunity to learn from him?
