Rock the W

Wow, what a great start to my third season as a 'triathlete.'  I recently found out that I was selected to be part of the Wattie Ink Elite Triathlete Team.  I am one of 50 great team members, spread out across the US. It has only been a week since the team announcement and I can already tell this is going to be a great year.  Expect a lot of new PRs from me this season, as my motivation to do well just got cranked up to 11.

I am looking forward to wearing the team kit for that first race.  My first race will likely be the Desert Triathlon in March.  Based on timing, it'll be a close call as to whether the gear will be ready by then.  Aside from a couple other teammates racing that weekend, I look forward to also seeing Team Wattie Ink founder, Sean Watkins and top female pro, Heather Jackson, there too.

There are a couple ways to keep up with the Team this year, including it's new rivalry with Team Rev3/Trakkers:
Wattie Ink Elite Team on Facebook
Wattie Ink Elite Team members on Twitter or use #rocktheW

Maybe by the end of the year, I won't feel strange calling myself a triathlete.
