There are 153 days left until Jodi and I do our triathlon in June. We are doing the Utah Summer Games triathlon down at the Sand Hollow State Park by St. George. This will be my first triathlon that I will be participating in. Jodi and I are doing it as a team, so right now our plan is for her to swim and I am going to bike (14 miles) and run (5K). Right now it looks like Jodi’s brothers are also going to be participating in this triathlon and we’re trying to recruit some other people as well.

Yesterday Jodi and I went to Salt Lake Running Company and bought some shoes and socks. I did not really have good running shoes and the ones I had were a few years old so I was in need of some new ones. At Salt Lake Running Company they put me on a treadmill and video taped my feet to determine what kind of shoes that I should wear. When my foot hits the ground it doesn’t hit quite flat so I need shoes with a little extra support on one side to help flatten me out. I have not actually used my new shoes yet, but I am planning to give them a good workout over the next 153 days.
