Give Peace a Tri








Last Saturday I did this tri for my second time. It's a fun one with lots of beginners. When I heard a woman talk about doing the breast stroke or the side stroke I thought, "These are my people."  My swimming and running times were quite a bit slower than last year but my bike was right on with a good pace. I was 141 / 205 and 2/4 in my age group. I had fun doing it so I guess I'll sign up for more. I kind of liked the swim. 
I left there to head to Maine where I stayed with a friend on Bailey Island and had a very relaxing time. It was all lighthouses, beach, seafood and porch sitting with daily running and riding thrown in too. I loved watching the lobster men check their traps right in front of the 




Now I'm in Oregon visiting Emily. We got up this morning and did a sunrise run up Mt Pisgah. July has been a busy month.

I love the picture of that lighthouse. I've never done a sunrise run, and I'll give it a try!
Enjoy your trip in Oregon!

Oh my gosh, beautiful scenery! I do run at sunrise, a lot, and it never gets old. Well, except for the getting out of bed part...
