So, I am well aware of the fact that I suck when it comes to my blog. As the Director of Social Media for an ad/PR agency, you would think I would be a rock star at it… but clearly, I am not.
I blame it on the whole “cobbler’s shoes theory”.

In true form I like to post from time-to-time just to prove to those of you who stumble in my path, that I am still alive.
Today is that day.
Recently I started reading Shannon’s blog and it reminded me that I have not posted in a while. It reminded me of the fun of blogging and the input you get from others when there are things you struggle with.
First and foremost, I left everyone hanging about my triathlon… so here’s the deal…
I did it!!
The night before the triathlon we were bringing our bikes to transition in our street shoes. Usually your feet are clipped nicely into the pedals so you get the whole “push-pull” action on your legs. This night, in our street shoes, it was all “push” action on the legs, and more vulnerable for me, the knees.
Mine popped.
I felt it and I heard it.
But, I didn’t train this hard, raise this money for cancer and push myself outside my comfort zone for nothing…
so I raced anyway…
Then, I couldn’t walk…
Then, I needed 8 weeks of physical therapy for a torn ACL.
What I didn’t need was surgery… Thank God, I’m a baby about having my body cut open… been there, done that… a lot.
But I did it..
and I raised the money…
but I am not allowed to run anymore.
I was never a big runner anyway, as a matter-of-fact, this was the only time in my life I was a runner.
So thanks Shannon for getting me going… okay, thanks for getting me to post an update, I am not making any promises of consistency.
