About Me

Glad you stopped by my blog! My name is Julie. The phrase, "Feeling simply quilty", comes from the last episode of Frasier. It's the closing line of the final show. When Fraser is on a plane leaving Seattle, someone (I think Roz) asks him "how are you feeling, Frasier"? With a Cheshire cat grin, from ear to contented ear, his reply is, "I'm feeling simply quilty"...smile... It's a wonderful world we live in, even if there's all the bad we read about I can't help but feel simply quilty about my life and work...smile...

Polar Bear Triathlon, Shelbyville Series, Race #1







It was a beautiful cold below freezing morning.  I was in my 2nd triathlon I have ever done.  My first was in September, 2011.  

I must say I am hooked!  What a wonderful way to spend a day.  Outside running, biking then indoors, swimming.  My crew, Bob, drove me to the facility on the request 7:00am check in.  Then it seemed we waited forever for the 8:30 start.  We won't do that again.  I was excited.  So excited I forgot to stop my Garmin Forerunner 610 for a more accurate reading on the statistics for the race.  Oh well, I am not in the hunt to win.  I just really enjoy being in the mix, only as a participant.  Triathlons are a means for losing weight and getting healthy for me.  The other benefits are stress relieving, (which I really don't have any stress) toning and general better healthy attitude.  

I highly recommend them.
