I guess that's the nature of the blogging beast-finding a balance between being yourself and being a presentable self :) I just try and remind myself the funniest comedians often offend EVERYONE and people take it in stride in the name of humor!<BR/><BR/>I second Danielle's comment. I got my friend (a former collegiate swimmer and kids swim coach) to watch me and give tips and after one session I was much improved. That, and actually spending some time swimming (I avoided this at the beginning), seemed to make a difference!<BR/><BR/>Enjoy!Audreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07307937378956236480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-636567097339297046.post-9727555203588133932007-02-28T16:00:00.000-06:002007-02-28T16:00:00.000-06:00good, we're all good.now, bike porn is very simple...good, we're all good.<BR/><BR/>now, bike porn is very simple.<BR/><BR/>but, there are unspoken rules. <BR/><BR/>first, you have to shift into your big ring -- only show a pic in the big ring.<BR/><BR/>next, you have to place that bad gurl up against a blank wall. <BR/><BR/>then, take one pic with a flash, and one without.<BR/><BR/>finally -- try to get it in focus. generally, this is a given... but, yes -- i've noticed your photo skills... i'm only guessing it was a previous occupational hazard from being on the other side of the camera...<BR/><BR/>make me proud.<BR/><BR/>p.s. i think i had a popular blog last year, because the most interesting blogs, are of that of the newbs on their journey into triathlon... i'm looking forward to following yours...<BR/><BR/>p.p.s. here's a pro tip on how to ride your precious Pyro -- rubber side down. no need to thank me, i'm here to help!Bolderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11468747570730558685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-636567097339297046.post-86015231649218058252007-02-28T12:46:00.000-06:002007-02-28T12:46:00.000-06:00I just had a session with a swim coach and now I a...I just had a session with a swim coach and now I am all messed up! But even my first time out alone afterwards I knocked 10 seconds off my 100yd time with the pull buoy, so once I can figure out how to make my legs work right, I am sure I will see the same improvement without it :-)Danielle in Iowa in Irelandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12274576534281164011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-636567097339297046.post-41392066734939625112007-02-28T12:04:00.000-06:002007-02-28T12:04:00.000-06:00nice post.
