Whistler 70.3 2017 was a great race! Dom and I both signed up earlier this year and we were excited to do an Ironman event with some of our other team members. We had 4 people that raced the half and 3 that did the full. We also had a pretty amazing cheer squad. Pre-Race:…

Did we officially kick off summer this weekend!?
Happy Earth Day! I hope you were able to get outside and enjoy this fabulous place we call Earth. Seriously… Mother Nature kicks A$$! Today we did 60 miles to San Clemente and back and it felt like we officially kicked off training for Whistler in July. This whole week we have all stepped up…
Ironman Florida 2016
WOW! So IM Florida has come and gone and what an experience it was. It was exactly one year ago this week that I had my knee surgery and that Marjan and I signed up for Florida. I had so many moments of doubts over the past year that I wouldn’t be strong enough to…
#Throwback Thursday…because it took a week to post!

Trail Happy
Staying motivated is one of the hardest things for me to master as a triathlete. I have a tendency to fade in and out. I will train really hard for something and then once the race Is over I take a few weeks off. I might decide I am sick of swimming and biking and…
Yoga…on a yacht!

Highlights
WOW has it really been over a month since I last posted? Blogging EPIC FAIL!! In my defense… the last few weeks have been a crazy blur of work projects, non-stop activities and major life events. As per usual training has gotten pushed to the side. I would like to whine about how out of shape…
A Salute to Alexander Aciman
I have to admit that I had to google “reblogging” before I wrote this post. I wasn’t sure if it was proper blogging ettiquate! A fellow running friend shared this post on Facebook the other day and I seriously think I have read it 15 times. Perhaps it is because I’m at the point in…
Desert Tri – Race Report
Last weekends race can be pretty much summed up in one picture 🙂 We were warned ahead of time that it was going to be windy on race day. But, It never crossed my mind that the wind would be so bad that they might actually cancel the race! When we woke up on Sunday…
Race Week Randomness…
T minus 2 days until race day! As always, I have a good combo of excitement and butterflies to keep me energized. Also, as always I am doing a modified taper because I am never quite where I should be in my training. It doesn’t matter if it is my A race or C race, somehow…
