4 years ago I couldn't walk up my own driveway. Today I completed the swim leg of my first sprint triathlon.

    I would say- I can't believe you did it! But I so much can.
    You are a determined woman with a positive attitude that never ceases to amaze and inspire me.

    I love the pic of you in your wet suit, (so glad you had one knowing how cold the waters are in the PNW) and the one of the back of the 3 of you hugging. Heck I love them all.
