I had a pretty successful day at the CapTex Tri - can’t wait for the Couples Tri in July! Thank you all for your support & donations to The Mark Felice Childhood Cancer Fund. As of yesterday we had raised a whopping $7,090, completely shattering our original goal of $5,000.

Some thoughts on the race:

  • The Best: winning the swim part of my race
  • The Worst: the last 1/2 of the run
  • The Takeaway: I need to figure out a nutriton plan … I don’t eat anything during the bike/run and I have a feeling that once I figure that part out I’ll do much better!
  • The Random: Sharpie number tan lines are real. Under no circumstances will I ever forget my sunscreen on race day again - lesson learned.

Special thanks to the Felice family, 1-800-Oncologist who donated $.50 for every “Like” they received on Facebook, and to our compassionate & dedicated leader Ann Marie Francese. 

Can’t wait to read this book!

Chrissie Wellington is a four-time World Ironman champion. She won her fourth title in 2011 after sustaining serious injuries two weeks before the race. Her autobiography, “A Life Without Limits,” is set to be released Thursday in the UK. It will come out in the United States on May 15.

But how does one develop that strength? Is it innate, or can it be learned?

Thanks to all those who have donated to Livestrong in support of my triathlon … I couldn’t have made it into the Top 5 Fundraisers without you!
