the wait is over

i’m getting ready for our first team in training group practice of 2010 – pulling out my speedo from the very, very back of my closet, figuring out which goggles hurt my eyebrow ring less, trying not to let the combination of nervous but excited drive me nuts.

as i trudged home from the bus today, it really hit me – this IS happening. five months of training begin today.

it’s hard to believe a year ago i had no idea what TNT would mean in my life. i can’t imagine not looking forward to, and simultaneously dreading, going to practice – i can’t imagine not knowing my fine, fine teammates – and i can’t imagine not knowning that i’m part of something truly bigger, totally great.

just like i always dedicate my yoga practice to my momma, i always dedicate my TNT practices to those touched by cancer. today, and always, i train for you.
