Hello & Welcome to our Wacky World

I've been postponing doing this initial blog post as I had hoped to create some wonderfully witty prose about the five of us participating in this crazy team. Well, having a life with multiple birth children (twins, triplets, or more - oh my) in it makes for a busy day, week, month, year...you get the gist. There is just never going to be that "perfect" time to get this blog going so I said heck with it and now you're reading this as it is - faults and all.

You see, all the members of this team have twins (three of us) or triplets (two of us). We are all members of the Parents of Twins and Triplets Organization (POTATO - hence our Hot POTATO team name). We are not amazing athletes, Olympic competitors or Iron Man contenders, but we are strong, capable women and we are DETERMINED to finish the Country Music 1/2 Marathon in April. We may be crawling across that finish line, but - by golly (we are Southern and talk like that a LOT) - we WILL make it across that finish line.

Also, training for this huge endeavor helps give us some much needed time away from our twins & triplets. We need a break people!

So, having said all that, we plan on posting on this site as much as possible. We are working on our individual and group training schedules now and plan on taking pictures of all of us together soon. We also are participating in a 5K (the Zoo Run Run) at the end of January which should be fun (or awful, or a sick combination of both).

Enjoy!
