  • Are you clever? Please help!

    I haven’t signed up for a triathlon yet, but I have agreed to be the running leg of a triathlon relay race! Sally is going to swim and Kevin is going to bike. We’re going to do the Ballantyne Triathlon in July, and I’m excited because the bike leg practically goes right past my house. We…
