Let's Get Motivated!
Hi Everyone!
You're getting this blog because YOU are an ATHLETE! Yes, hard to admit and label yourself that, but get used to it, because if you don't feel like an athlete now - you WILL when you cross the finish line. Stick with it!!! BTW - we get personal here and use real photos and real stories...nothing is sacred in the name of motivation. I love Lesa's recent story: She was at the doctors recently and talking about her health. She cut to the chase with the doctor and described herself as an "athlete" so he would get the big picture!
Regarding pictures and getting personal...Last season Elaine didn't want her picture taken in the pool...we honored her request but guess what?! She's in one of the best pictures taken last year at the finish line ----- and all three triathletes look great!!!
Since we haven't done much training yet, I'm posting some pix from last year that will hopefully serve as inspiration. I also want to throw out the idea of joining the masters swim team at the North Attleboro Y - Monday nights at 7:30 p.m. - keeping Wednesday nights at the Franklin pool and Saturday mornings open.

Later,
Donna
