I’m very pleased to be the recipient of the two latest Bloggy Awards that are out there floating around, the Cherry on Top Award and the Happy 101 Award. Many, many thanks to the lovely bloggers who awarded me: Ginny @ Java Joggers, who takes lots of gorgeous pictures and has terrific giveaways (which […]
Six Things Sunday
Ahhh, Happy Labor Day Weekend! In the spirit of celebrating the working folks with a day of laziness, here is my bullet-point post for the day: Thank goodness Recovery Week is over! As mentioned previously, I am not a huge fan of Recover Week. I find it sort of boring and sometimes even harder than […]
Spectator Report – TRI for KIDS
How can you tell it’s the weekend? Because we’re racing, of course! Swim cap and goggles are on, so the sweatshirt comes off. Brrrrrrrrr! It was really chilly this morning. Google Images? No. Goggle images. The hard […]
Photo Spectator Report – The Hubs’ Oly!
I love the early morning sights on race days! Of course we arrived early to get his pick of the bike racks. It was still dark but already pretty busy in the transition area. Not only did every single spot on the racks fill up, but some people had to lean their bikes against trees […]
TRI for KIDS Photo Spectator Report
A gorgeous start to a fantastic day, for sure! We arrived early and had our pick of the bike racks. Later, they were completely full. Body Marking. I seriously love the smell of those pens! Ready to rock ‘n roll! Big Boy’s swim start – yeah, he took a foot in the face […]
Training, Interrupted
Nope, no injuries, and thank goodness for that, but my training is still suffering a setback this week. My cousin died on Sunday and even though his passing was neither sudden nor unexpected, it’s hard to handle. Losing a loved one sucks. Yesterday was supposed to be a long (for me) swim, but that didn’t […]

Technorati Tags: speedwork,birthdays,swim drills,Gatorade Because it’s my blog and I’m not feeling the cutesy today. 1. Today was a speedwork day – hooray! Nice and short, and thank goodness for that because I didn’t get going until 11 am. Hello hot. Five miles total with two 1-mile repeats, easy peasy, and I hit them both […]
Family Training Day
For most of our training, The Hubs and I can work out a schedule that leaves one of us at home with the boys while the other of us is out for a run or a ride. Occasionally, there’s a short amount of overlap time (my boys are 12 and 10 – trust me, they can […]
Marriage in Training
Nine times out of ten it is completely excellent to have a husband who also runs, bikes and swims. A husband who pushes me to my limits and beyond, a husband who understands why I want to eat pasta three nights a week and don’t keep sweets in the house. A husband who knows what […]
Weekend Recap
Somehow, several days passed me right by without blogging, and what busy days they were! Friday I had planned to do another Open Water Swim, but wouldn’t you know it the wind kicked up again and I just didn’t have it in me to face that choppy water. So I busted out 1200 meters in […]
