NYC Triathlon

First let me thank the Newport Bridge Run for giving me such a nice shout out on Twitter last night!  That was nice & a bit exciting to notice that tweet this morning.  I am really digging Twitter lately, sorry Facebook, but I'm finding it more interesting!

I found out yesterday that I did not get selected for the 2012 NYC Triathlon.  I had a feeling that would happen, especially since I had been super lucky & got into Alcatraz.  I didn't think I was going to be lucky twice in one month!  But there are charity spots available & one is for the MS society.

As some of you may know, a dear friend was recently diagnosed with MS & I am hoping to get one of these charity spots so that I can raise money to help find a cure for this disease.  Even if I don't get selected as one of the slots, I am still devoted to raising money for MS & will find another race.  There's always another race. I will be posting the link for the MS society soon, whether I get in or not.  So be on the lookout for it!

Lets all keep our fingers posted that I get in!

New York City

It's all or nothing for NYC!  I did not pay the $400 for the Alcatraz Triathlon this year.  It was a tough decision, but I think I'm really up for NYC instead.  It will be a easier race location & I think it will be a lot of fun.  I entered the lottery yesterday & I am keeping my fingers crossed.  I will know next week if I am in or not.

If I don't make it in to the lottery, I think I can sign up for one of the charity partner slots.  I see that the MS Society has a spot & I will find out if I am eligible.

Otherwise, not much new has been happening with me.  Pretty boring & I like to keep it that way!  Looking forward to the Manasquan Turkey Trot in the next few weeks.  I've never tried that race & I hear that there's a great after race party!
