96 days and change to go / My Cake!

...until my first half ironman. Ugh. I am not looking forward to it. I have spoken about this more on the other blog, but anyway, I think I have bitten off more than I can chew. The swimming is going fine. But I am not really able to run much yet. Backpain is still there and running makes it worse. I have been able to bike though and that is great. Weather is getting better too, that helps a bunch. Anyway the goal is to survive and run the whole thing. I can do it....yeah...I think.

At least I am going to give it a go. This may be the last triathlon for a bit, other than some sprints. I kind of like it, but I am not sure I am as addicted as others I know. It may just be that I am still going through cyclocross withdrawls.

My Cake!
In other news, Bridget is currently hard at work baking what I do believe is my all time favorite cake. She has been slaving away for most of the day on this one silly cake. It has 7 minute-type frosting and coconut on it and a lemon filling. The cake is NOT from a mix. Oh man...she must still love me. Maybe I will grab a pic and post it later.

Update: Oh yeah....

Luvin the coconut and lemon filling...yum. I feel the same way about my measley little sprint on the 29th except I'm shakey on the bike part. I can't bring myself to get on. I feel so unsafe on a bike. I don't know the rules of the road for bikes and the breaks are too far for me to comfortably reach. In short, I'm just chicken. Bikes and me...well, we're pretty much strangers
