Balancing Act
SWEET! So, I got this new job with Sprint (which I love! And will be working A LOT). And 12 credit hours at school... including upper division classes, a Teaching Assistant position & an Internship with UA Student Affairs. Additionally, I am a Student Manager for the Southwestern Company (Best Summer Gig for any college student with cajones!) and am interviewing students all throughout the semester. So much cool stuff going on! WHEW! And even with all of that mandatory stuff, TRICATS still takes first priority in my heart, so I've scheduled everything around as many TRICATS workouts & meetings as possible. Isn't that interesting?! lol But, what can I say, I love the TRICATS! Our First Official Meeting is tomorrow and I am stoked!

Race Spectator
Fall '07
Soooo, this is not my racing season, but my "base-training & uniform-buying season." hehe
Yeah, so in the meantime I am loving being on the sidelines: spectating and supporting our team (LOVE IT!!!), but this weekend it was a little tough. I was a stationary spectator, cheering from behind a table full of (gorgeous) new Tricat t-shirts (only $12 if anyone wants one!! hehe), and wasn't able to roam the course as I normally do to give that serious support I love to give to the hardest working people there: the racers!

Training with a Team
I am a member of the TriCats of the University of Arizona and have found that training with a team is, personally, so much more effective than training without one.
For example, last night we had a swim workout that was kind of exhaustive of my swimming energy and abilities. Without working out there as part of a Team Practice, there is no way I would have put that much intensity into the 50's repeats we were doing... Just no way! lol
I am thankful for the TriCats.
