I think to be a good human being is about touching lives positively......in every little way we can........and you are touching lives in such a big way.....I don't know if you are aware of how much !!!!

My thoughts will be with you on Monday!

So Jennifer, participating in a triathlon terrifies you, yet standing up on stage in front of a bunch of people belting out a very comprehensive list of orgasmic moans doesn't faze you? Lol, personally I'd go for the triathlon any day, if only open water swimming didn't freak me out, ever since I got my leg slashed by a stingray's barb several years ago! Luckily for you I don't think they have stingrays in Vancouver so you should be safe, and I don't think the starfish, seals and crabs would bite ;-) Wishing you the very best of luck on Monday. Your training schedule sounds awesome. Hope it goes well for you and thanks for the inspiration. And get well soon Pablo :-) You go girl, we're with you all the way!!!

and he will carry you.

Jennifer never in my life have i've been so inspired in a 48 hour period, from listening to the overwhelming speech given by Obama to reading your blog about your journey towards completing your triathalon. Your sacrifice of mind, body and soul all for the sake of helping others is inspiring. Your embodiment of community is the most authentic sense of that word. You transcend bounderies not only through your work, but in your personal life, which exemplifies the type of person we should all want to be because you don't have to do any of it. You could pick up your check and that be the end of it, but you CHOOSE to carry on your back the issues of those marginalized, and less fortunate with out the need for recognition. You truely are a beautiful person. Your inner strength and conviction will ultimately not only be the thing that gets you through the triathlon, but also through life's adversities. All your fans will be there in spirit as you cross the finish line. Thank you again for what you choose to do. You are my hero.

Both Alexandra and you are so loved and prayed for!

Long Live Tibette!

Jennifer, I have sent my contribution in and want to thank you for your contribution to these great causes. As you can see from all these messages, you are greatly admired for the integrity you exhibit in your life, as we are allowed some small glimpse into it, and for the integrity you infuse into the character of Bette, that many of us identify with, and have come to love. On a purely superficial note, its hard to imagine you could look any better or more fit. But, in the interest of science, we will be looking at you a bit more closely in those love scenes with Laurel that we know are coming, to see if this rigorous training could possibly improve on that perfection. I am sure this attention makes you slightly uneasy, but just be assured that you are promoting a very positive sense of community by your willingness to put yourself out here and be a part of it. As someone else said, Flashdance was nice, but this is now. Wow is this now.

Now I'm gonna worry all weekend I grew up by the ocean and never went past my ankles I still won't!! I can't run but I can ride a bike forever so i'll be pedaling with you.

P.S. now I'm terrified!
P.s.s Your The Best Jennifer Good Luck!
i mailed my donation today (feels good)
i'll say a prayer!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you are tired, keep going.
If you are scared, keep going.
If you are hungry, keep going.
If you want to taste freedom, keep going.

Thanks JB, now I don't have an excuse for not exercising anymore! Lol. I will definitely have to fit in some hardcore training in between school and work.

Anyway, OMG how can you do all of that in one day? HOW? That doesn't seem possible. It just blows my mind. You're such a well rounded person. I'm very curious how you talked Alexandra into going swimming, in the ocean, in the rain at 7:30 AM? That's some serious bribing. Haha.

I was thinking that maybe you should be in the 2012 olympics. Yup. You could win at anything, well except beach volleyball- don't go there. Anyway, during your triatholon always keep in mind that you have everyone here at Ourchart rooting for you! We love you so much!

PS: You won't drown, you just have to worry about the sharks. Lol. Kidding. Love you.

Hi Jennifer,

Great that your facing your fears and doing this triathlon.

Go for it!
NO Fear, Your a fearless woman!

after hearing your schedule, that "lack of time” is not a legitimate excuse not to train for a triathlon!! I guess I will have to stop using it! You are amazing and truly an inspiration! What perseverance and discipline! GOOD LUCK and HAVE FUN, JENNIFER!!! We are so proud of you!!

You wont drown. lol. Take it easy and don't strain yourself.
Hope you're enjoying the training. I'm a basketball player and i have to hit the gym at least 5 times a week. For what feels like a life time per session. So i kinda get how you must feel...*Maybe not* I think your training is more challenging than mine...DEFFO. But have fun! Behind you all the way!

I admire your strength and kindness.
Have a good'un

I bow to your courage. I'm in awe of your talent. I'm inspired by your strength and determination, and you never cease to amaze me when I read or hear what you are doing. I wish you god speed and good luck on the 1st September and only wish I had the resources to help support your charities in honour of what you are doing.

Don't be terrified! Think how the fish feel seeing you power through the water! Tip: Try painting black lines on your goggles...I find it helps me keep to the straight and narrow If it doesn't, then it helps black out what you don't want to see ....like the backs of your competitors!

As someone who is physically restricted I can't help but admire your commitment to fitness, but mind how you go, take some well earned R&R when you can......don't want anything preventing you from appearing at L5.

Fingers crossed you achieve your goals. Best wishes to you.

A rolling stone gathers no moss, but you don't 'arf get dizzy!

Jennifer, our prayers are with you but i have no doubt that you can do anything you put your mind into...triathlon, working on set, spending time with your family - how do you find time for anything else? you're an inspiration to all of us and we are proud of you

I'll be cheering for you Monday morning (i'm glad Vancouver is hour behind my place, it means i can have an extra hour to sleep), be strong, be fast, be safe and just enjoy everything you do

Go,Jennifer!!!

You are the reason why I took another 42 km bike ride today. I felt so good and so happy after it, although it was very windy and quite cold outside. I have really grown to enjoy biking so much - and it is all thanks to you. You have inspired me to get myself out and DO something after everyday "sitting-work". I would have never guessed that I am the one who says that after having ridden about 20 km it just _starts_ to feel right and light!

I hope you don't push yourself too hard and have some time to relax and enjoy yourself either doing nothing or doing things (physically not so demanding..) that are making you happy.

With love, admiration and warmest greetings from the other side of the world - Northern Europe,
K

The commitment that you bring to everything you do - be it a scene, a cause, a personal goal - is truly inspiring. You have already made us proud, even before your feet have hit the water. Go, Jennifer!

Vancouver loves you! It is a honor to have you in our city! You ROCK! Your Drive will make you Succeed in your endeavor!

FASTER THAN A SPEEDING BULLET....
MORE POWERFULL THAN A LOCOMOTIVE....
AND ABLE TO SWIM IN A STRAIGHT LINE! ;)

"To find a queen without a king,
They say she plays guitar and cries and sings.
Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn
Tryin' to find a woman who's never, never, never been born"

Jennifer,

I would think very hardly to you of the 1sep!!

The best of luck to you Jennifer!!!

Keep it up, Jennifer. You can do it. Channel your fear ("did I mention I'm terrified?") into a healthy energy and anticipation of what you are about to accomplish.

La verdad es que cosas como ésta hacen grande a una persona, al márgen de todos los éxitos profesionales que puedas tener.
Gracias Jennifer.

You are such an inspiration to everyone here on OC!!

Wow, you're amazing Jennifer. When do you have time to sleep? All the best for your triathalon.
