Race Report – Vineman (140.6) 2013

Not quite a week has passed since I crossed the finish line in Windsor, California for my second Iron-distance triathlon event!  What a ride it is to train, race, complete and recover from these ultra distance events!  I LOVE IT! *Note that Vineman is not…

Ironman Boise 70.3 2013 – Ironman vs. The Weather

Poor Boise 70.3 has such a bad rap!  This early season race does nothing but struggle with weather conditions.  Last year it made for epic photos of athletes riding their bikes on a shortened course to transition.  So of course I decided to sign up…

RACE REPORT: St. George Marathon 2012

It’s the off-season!  I’ve been feeling so good.  No pressure.  No Garmin.  No training plan.  Just me doing whatever floats my boat at whatever speed (typically VERY slowly) that feels good.  It has been pure bliss.  In this blissful state, I thought that it would…
