Are you kidding me? Who does that? The swim alone would kill me off. My 4 mile a day walk looks puny to that. How exactly are you going to do this with a wedding on the way? Good luck! Brooke
Oh! MY! GOODNESS! You go Girl! The swimming I could do, the running . . . not so easily with heel spurs (loved the high, high heels in my twenties!) and the biking - well, my rear end would be killing me! We rode about 8 miles last Sunday and nothing hurt but my rear. :( I am over here from Patty's blog. You and I are her only followers, she is my Tussie Mussie partner and I thought you might be her daughter . . . but found you instead. YAY! Loving hearing about the wedding, and I love decorating and organizing too. Very fun! Have a wonderful day and Happy Easter! Karen - Some days are diamonds
I hope that you enjoy every minute of it! I really admire people who can do these kinds of things. My husband thinks I look ridiculous when I run and now that my veins are bad in my legs I think I had better stop.
I will be sending you cyber cheers all through April!
Wow!!! You go girl.... there isn't much time around here lately for "true" excercising, does trying to get finished up tax clients, working 2 jobs, getting ready for an estate sale and auction count??? lol.... I'm so glad you came by to say hello.. Happy Easter..hugs ~lynne~
