I swam today!! Me! In the pool! Swimming! Yes, I know that’s a lot of exclamation points, but this was sort of a big deal. The last time I swam was just about a year ago, when I was in the midst of The Summer of Duathlon and decided that since I didn’t have to […]
IMAZ – an IronSherpa Report
I am almost caught up on vacation laundry, so I figured I really ought to get this spectator report written… IronMan Arizona was an absolutely amazing event, even as “just” a spectator. IronHubs’ training cycle had gone exceptionally well and he was ready to throw down an awesome day. We loaded up Big Boy and […]
The HIT IV–Photo Spectator Report
IronHubs competed in the TBF Racing Half Iron Triathlon today and, needless to say, completely ROCKED his race! This was his second half-iron distance race – he did the HIT III last year with similarly spectacular results. Here’s our day in pictures: Pre-race selfie from a strange angle. I’m covered in sunblock, wearing our family […]
TRI for KIDS and TRI for REAL Spectator Report
This was one heck of a weekend for the P family. No sooner had the dust cleared on my final duathlon of the summer than we were back at Rancho Seco for two more races – Little Boy competed in the TRI for KIDS series championships and IronHubs did the TRI for REAL Olympic distance. […]
TRI for KIDS #2 Spectator Report
Yes, it was another big weekend in the P household – after my race on Saturday, I got to get up early on Sunday and do it all again (though thankfully as a spectator)! Big Boy and Little Boy both raced the TRI for KIDS #2 and both of them turned in huge PR performances! […]
TRI for FUN #1 Spectator Report
Little Boy had a truly fantastic day on Sunday at his first triathlon for the season, knocking more than three minutes off his previous best time!! But rather than tell you all about it, I made a little movie for you: Don’t you LOVE this song?? Me, too! You can get it for yourself from […]
F R E A K I N G O U T
Don’t mind me if this post ends up making very little sense, because I have entered that part of race training known as the Complete and Utter Freak Out Stage. No joke. I can’t string together a coherent sentence in real life, so don’t expect me to have anything but crazy to say here on […]
Bike Path by the Numbers
IronHubs and I went for a gorgeous long-ish ride/short run brick on the American River Bike Trail today. We saw: 14 – Large dogs, including a St. Bernard and several Australian Shepherds. 3 – Small to medium sized dogs, including a Pomeranian who was SOOOOOOO happy to be running with his mama! 0 – Dogs […]
How is it Thursday Again Already???
Do you ever have one of those days where you feel invincible, like you could just go forever? Me, neither, but I totally had one today. There’s no real reason for me to be feeling so lively today. Heaven knows I didn’t fuel for a spectacular workout with last night’s dinner of half of a […]
April Recap-a-rooni
April was easily my best month so far this year, in spite of tiny setbacks (top of the foot pain that had me resting my run for about a week) and a world-class FAIL at my first open water swim event. Small potatoes, both of them, especially as May has dawned and that means – […]
