Christmas Letter

Every year for as long as I can remember we have written a letter to send out to family and friends that talks about all the things we did and places we went over the past year. My wife usually writes this and when I saw the first draft, it included a paragraph about my bike and me training for triathlons.

Honestly, I haven't told anyone about this. Nobody knows I am training for triathlons and I was really unsure that I wanted to just announce it to the world via the christmas letter. Nobody even knows about this blog. The reasons for this are purely selfish, and the main one is that I have no idea if I am going to even be successful. I hurt myself the first time I ran, it is 3 sports I have never really done, or done well at put together.

I thought I could just wait until I finished a couple of triathlons and then start talking about it next summer. My wife didn't think it was a big deal and after talking through it, I decided to keep the paragraph in the Christmas letter.
