My sister is the illustrator for that book!<BR/>Go to debbiepalen.com to see more of her stuff (if interested). She visited my Elem. school last year where I work, and that was one of the "most favored" books of the students.<BR/>Good luck with you upcoming race!Fe-ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07986479866903093934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17908166.post-1147862947478540922006-05-17T03:49:00.000-07:002006-05-17T03:49:00.000-07:00Awwe.

I did a lot of my last few months there for slow distance. Mostly because its rubberized and I wanted the extra cushion to work in the joints slowly over time.<BR/><BR/>Cheers. <BR/><BR/>Rice.Ricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13683643051357184033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17908166.post-1147710836132893152006-05-15T09:33:00.000-07:002006-05-15T09:33:00.000-07:00Yes, my 10-yr-old truly has done 3 triathlons, but...Yes, my 10-yr-old truly has done 3 triathlons, but keep in mind they were kid distances/kid triathlons.
