I haven't been to a physician since my girls were born, 4.5 years ago. BUT I just checked my BP on my home monitor that I used for a while while I was pregnant (put away and couldn't find since then) and 5 readings were between:
127 to 129 systolic
76 to 78 diastolic
(I had a couple lower readings, actually, but it was adjusted slightly wrong).
COOL!!! Not too bad for an overweight 50-year-old!
Now I wish I could do a blood lipid profile on myself and I wouldn't need to go in to the d*mn doc at all!!
So this triathlon stuff may be good for something after all, even if I'm not fast or competitive, eh??

you say you're not fast or competitive as though it's a bad thing!
and btw who brought home bling recently?
congrats on your well-earned good health :)
I mean competitive in the sense of not placing in age-group competition.... no comment on my competitive nature!!!!
I don't mean to butt in with an uncalled for opinion, but with your advancing age (I can say that being older than you) shouldn't you be going to see a doctor every year for all that female related stuff?
Ha! But doctors SUCK!!
My take is that they're drumming up business by medicalizing healthy people. :-)
