HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my gal Lisa ~ who will celebrate her birthday next week with the B-Fit Birthday Challenge! Some of us celebrate with too much chocolate and cake, but noooooo.......Lisa is going to swim, bike and run an absurd amount in celebration of her youth! Have an awesome birthday week Lisa! :)

HAPPY, HAPPY TRI-ING to another one of my heros~ Nancy who is doing her first triathlon during my absence!!! Did you hear me ~ TRIATHLON!!! Holy smokes woman, you ROCK!

HAPPY, HAPPY TRI-ING to Mendy & David ~ some veteran tri-do-ers~ who are great at just about everything! You guys make an awesome pair.....go ROCK that TRI on Saturday!!

HAPPY, HAPPY HALF MARATHON to vivacious Viv ~ who is running a HM relay while I'm flying across the ocean ;) You are going to be fantastic!

and last, but certainly not least ~

HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY MARATHON to Nat ~ who is running the Shamrock Marathon in VA Beach on Sunday! I've loved riding along the journey with you this far Nat.....so get your tail to that finish line, will ya? You're going to do AWESOME!
