      Triathlon is not for everyone. The most I’ve joined is aquathlon. Open water swimming freaks me alone. Still scares me even if I am always doing pool training. Triathlon requires exhausting training plus the equippment and expenses for bike, Swimming gear/eqpt, renting pools etc. You can join a non competitive/chill race but make sure you meet the swimming cutooff. Triathlon registration is so expensive,too, so it’s a waste if you get cut off on the first leg of the race which is swimming ahaha.😅

    Watching them cross has me in tears. It's emotional for me, I thought I'd never run again myself. Not in the Olympics, I love playing Tennis so I almost was out of playing in High School and after High School. I can run now and move around. Just now I just found out about AU Footy and want to learn myself. So, I'm thankful for my support to run again.
    Take it from me, on your feet, in a wheel chair, however way you can. Go outside, it's beautiful outside. Safely of course.
