tri?

so in the plenty of time i've had wallowing in energilosness, i've begun to think about trying to finish a triathlon. i'm a shit swimmer, but have always wanted to get better, since it's so low impact. i think i may take a class since although i can fairly easily run 10 miles, swimming more than 5 laps is a major challenge. the thing i don't like about it is the major class factor if you want to get good... the bike... i mean, isn't alot of it how good a bike you have, and unlike shoes, which run in the 90s and low 100s for top notch quality, bikes are in the few thousands. if i do it i'll for sure use my trusty schwinn. the tri thing is good for me now b/c it makes this athletic thing a bit longer in scope/motivation. with the running thing i'm hard-core focused on qualifying for boston... but in the back of my head, it's like, what then? the tri thing gets me into a few other sports and i can already list off a ton of potential goals connected to it, like swimming in a lake. gross. anyway, why am i so obsessive? i want to get my partner to do one with me, but i don't think she really wants to, which leads me to believe that i should just leave her alone. although... i'd love her company. anyway, toodles for now, i think i'm almost 100% now... will try to do a normal run tomorrow. toodles.
