I can't WAIT to race this weekend. This is the first summer I haven't had a 70.3 looming over me and I definitely needed it. I love to race but knew that cutting back was going to be a smart plan, and even though there are moments when I think hey-maybe-I-could-do-Rev3?-I know that YES, I could do it, but I do not HAVE to. And that has been a nice feeling. I am excited to just enjoy a few races this summer and then wait until I really want something longer (which, who am I kidding, will probably be Rev3 half next year).
And on a completely unrelated note, I got my AP scores online today. I have to admit I really wasn't sure what this bunch would do. We all felt confident about the DBQ, though, and I crossed my fingers and hoped we had all done the other work for the rest of the test.
I am a big geek for this, but here goes: the scores were so good that I cried. Literally teared up. The best they've been in the 4 years I've been doing this. Out of 39 kids that took the test, 24 got 4s or 5s.
Proudly wearing my geek badge,

WOW those are great scores - yay kids!
Good luck this weekend at your race! (But you won't need it!)
Best of luck with your race this week!
And huge kudos to our favorite geek teacher!
I found your blog from other tri blogs but I come back because I find it interesting how invested you are in your students. I have 4 kids in public school and can't imagine a single one of their teachers thinking about their students once they step outside the classroom. It gives me hope that at some point we'll find a teacher like that. Congrats!
(I don't want to be teacher bashing. I just think your attitude is exceptional. Please only take this as a compliment, not as my being critical of formal education.)
