I have to say that I absolutely hate off-season. One week into her official off-season and she’s making me nuts! It started going to parties where I was the designated driver. I’m already lame enough; don’t leave me lame and sober! Aside from being a great dancer, I’m not much of a party guy. Then she wanted to stay up late…STAY UP LATE!?!?! But what is by far the worst thing about the off-season is her ambition. When she’s training, I get away with being lazy because she’s too tired to say anything but now… Already we have been to 3 furniture stores and home depot. I’m happy to report that our office is already painted and she’s already picking out paint for the guest room. GOD HELP ME!! April, please come soon. Santa, please bring back triathlon season.
Honestly, I like having my wife back for a few months. Being a triathlon sherpa/widow is harder than any race I have ever done. Heather appreciates it and I like to think I can contribute to her success. My own triathlon career (if you can call it that) is stalled due to a really bad season but I still feel fulfilled in what WE accomplished this year. I’m proud of Heather and I know that she’ll take everything she learned this year and convert it into more success next year.
Heather and I thought his blog would be fun for me to do. It’s sort of a point-counter-point that could be funny and interesting. The title, aside from being hilarious, (jk) paints a perfect picture of how things are during the season. I hope you like it
