Bring it!

Well, I have to say that I am very excited about tomorrow's 140.6 mile triathlon! This is a true first for me. I feel confident, relatively relaxed, and ready to go! Not sure why ... this course is going to be challenging, for sure, but I feel like I'm ready, mentally more so than physically, to tackle this journey, that I've been working toward for over 1 full year.  I well up with tears of joy and emotion as I visualize how the finish will affect me emotionally. I know that this experience will be one of the most empowering and vivid races I'll ever have. This is a once in a lifetime ... not just because it's St. George, but because it's the finale of my Captainship. I have met the most wonderful people and they have impacted my life, positively, and in this regard, I wouldn't trade being diabetic for being NON-diabetic if it meant that I didn't have this experience.  From challenges, we find victory, joy, and pride! This year has been truly amazing and I think THAT is why this is so especially meaningful to me.

Hugs!!!
Peace out, peeps!
