Superhero Sarah To The Rescue!

Yes, its ridiculous.
Yes, its a pain to get into.
But wow, does it look darn good.

Hello, my name is Sarah, and I look like a superhero.
In my mind, this might be the thing that gets me through the swim, my mantra will be, "Look like a superhero, swim like a fish."


Today, I picked up my wetsuit! Its a black "Fit2Race" specially-customized Team In Training, and I think I like it... a lot!

This weekend, a group of the Team Yahoo!ers are doing the Patanella's Flat As A Pancake race, in Staten Island. We're doing this sprint tri in order to fully understand what our splits are for each portion, and also to get a basic understanding of what's important in transitions, and how to quickly and effectively go from one portion of a tri to the next. Its a mini/sprint triathlon with the following breakdown, and I can't wait to debut my wetsuit:
  1. .25 mile swim
  2. 12 mile bike
  3. 3 mile run
  4. PANCAKES!
That's right -- post-race, pre-medals, we get free pancakes, so maybe my other motivation phrase will be, "Pancakes! Pancakes! Pancakes!"
