(I really get a kick out of the title. Ask Katie if you don't believe me)
So, coming up this weekend is something completely different. Katie and I will be du-ing a duathlon. What's a duathlon? Well, try this on for size:
triathlon - swimming + more running = duathlon
Yup, it's a triathlon where the swimming leg is replaced by a running leg. The race we're du-ing this Saturday is the Cannon Falls Duathlon in Cannon Falls, MN. It is a 2 mile run, then a 14 mile bike, then a 3 mile run.
Of course, you may be asking: "But Matt, do you bike competitively?" The short answer is "no". The longer answer is "not yet". This isn't a problem, though, because this weekend is the world debut of team:
Wait, This Isn't Badminton?
Yes, Katie and I will be du-ing this duathlon as a team! I get to run and she gets to cycle (on her fancy new cycle—wouldn't if be cool if Katie had a new penny-farthing?). I'm excited. Katie's excited. Since there aren't a whole lot of teams, we may even have a shot at placing! Check out my blog this weekend for the skinny on how things went.
