Jennifer Lopez has a Triathlon Training Blog
Posted on September 8, 2008
Here's another entry in the celebrity blogging department. There is a blog about Jennifer Lopez training for a triathlon on Self magazine's website. Lopez says she doesn't expect to win the triathlon but she does expect to finish. The money she raises will go to the Childrens Hospital Los Angeles.
"I've always loved sports. I used to be on a track team in school. And that's probably why I can think to myself now, Yeah, I can do this, which is totally crazy! The team was a big part of my life back then and taught me so many things. When I look back on my life and what I'm able to do, it's partly because of that early training. It taught me discipline, how to be committed, about striving to win, stamina, all that good stuff.She certainly sounds determined. The blog entries don't all appear to be written by Jennifer Lopez but the blog is focused on her and about her training. It includes tips from Lopez and her trainers. There are also photographs and videos of Lopez training for the event."The sports training also helped me deal with losing and rejection and all the things you go through when starting out in show business. I think that's why I was able to bounce back all the time. With track, I didn't let anything get to me. I would just think, Whatever, tomorrow's the next race, and I'm going to train harder and win next week. And I won maybe 70 or 80 medals and trophies over those years. I should dig those out!
"Now I've come full circle. I don't expect to win this race; my goal is to finish. I'll probably end up crawling across the finish line, but I'll do it!"
