I'll endorse that!

Just to add to Lori's thoughts below, I would like to wholeheartedly encourage each and every one of you to challenge yourself to accomplish something you've always wanted to, or something that excites you-even if, or ESPECIALLY if you aren't sure you can pull it off!  Whether it's a race, a trip, or any other positive life change, just start putting the idea out there.  You will attract others with similar energies, and then join together to "raise the level" of your experience, or simply gain the bits that you need to make it happen!  As many of you know, I am about to step off on my next adventure with my family; our move to Vernon has been a dream of ours for at least a decade, and not without being derailed in some pretty major ways at times!  I mention that only to illustrate that some goals take a whole lot of perseverance, and then, a whole lot of patience and cooperation from the forces beyond our control to really come to fruition.  I truly believe that there is a delicate balance between mindful, focussed effort,  and submission to let things happening naturally and in their own time-which often doesn't match up with our expectations!  Damn!  Ahhh, another time to practise letting go.  Well, in letting go of my small part of Fittogether Edmonton, I would like to thank each one of you for contributing your energy and personality to the the amazing community of people Lori and I like to think of as the amazing women (and Bruce when he came!) that inspire us and fill our spirits each week-and that is the 100% absolute truth! 


And to Lori, thank-you for being the best, most positive, enthusiastic, amazing, gentle, kind, and oh so strong partner in crime!  Long live FTE! 
(I know the tears rolling down my face are tears of joy!  I have learned so much from all of you.  Thank-you for that opportunity.)


Love and light,
Sue

Friends, Tri-ed and True

Well, it's been a while since our last update! Since our last post, we completed our goal and finished our Triathlon and finished it well! We trained hard and committed to many training sessions.  It was quite a journey! I have never enjoyed training so much, the workouts were great but the company was everything. It was so great to finish the race and feel so good about our results but there was a small sadness when it was over. Since the race it's been a challenge to keep up the same commitment, but we've stayed the course and even have some min-tris planned! So, once a race is over, it doesn't mean the training has to end. The training is just a bonus to spending great time with friends.
