TRI FOR JOY - Triathlon and Life: I Promise I'm Not Gone Forever
http://triforjoy.blogspot.com/2011/02/i-promise-im-not-gone-forever.html
TRI FOR JOY - Triathlon and Life. Tuesday, February 22, 2011. I Promise I'm Not Gone Forever. Yep, it's me. I wish I had something to say and promise I'll be back in blogland eventually. After setting an ambitious 2011 racing agenda, I fell on the ice in an unplowed parking lot and broke my ankle in three places in late January. On a happy note, I am reading your blogs. And on an even more special note, my little RJ turned 1 yesterday. It's been an amazing and beautiful year with her! Heres wish you a gr...

TRI FOR JOY - Triathlon and Life: My heart aches...
http://triforjoy.blogspot.com/2010/09/my-heart-aches.html
TRI FOR JOY - Triathlon and Life. Wednesday, September 8, 2010. I've been avoiding writing this post, but know that I have to. I also know that I need to keep it short so that I don't turn into a teary mess. My sweet sweet running partner Nick crossed the Rainbow Bridge. On 28 August. I'm not sure that I've ever had to make a harder decision in my life, but Stuart and I realized that it was time. September 8, 2010 at 3:45 PM. I am so sorry. September 10, 2010 at 2:07 PM.

TRI FOR JOY - Triathlon and Life. Tuesday, September 21, 2010. T-12 Days.and my parents are laughing. Stuart and I celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary yesterday (aww), and RJ is seven months old today (awwww), so we took the time to relax yesterday and take a leisurely stroll around the 'hood with RJ, Joe and Ally (both of whom still clearly miss their brother Nick). Next question was "Have you been training? I think I'm missing something. September 21, 2010 at 3:41 PM. Ok, you FAILED to mention this!

TRI FOR JOY - Triathlon and Life: Even my feet are out of shape - grody aftermath
http://triforjoy.blogspot.com/2010/10/even-my-feet-are-out-of-shape-grody.html
TRI FOR JOY - Triathlon and Life. Tuesday, October 12, 2010. Even my feet are out of shape - grody aftermath. More than a week after Giant Acorn, and another lesson learned. Normally if a race is an Olympic or sprint, I don't bother with socks for the run. For whatever reason, I had socks with me in transition two weekends ago, but didn't put them on. As a result, my now-soft, non-calloused feet ended up with two blisters each on the tops of my feet where the uppers rubbed. October 12, 2010 at 12:49 PM.

TRI FOR JOY - Triathlon and Life: April 2011
http://triforjoy.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
TRI FOR JOY - Triathlon and Life. Sunday, April 3, 2011. Yikes, this hurts! It's the at home exercises and beginning to put in some daily walks that hurts. Walking down the stairs still absolutely kills. Part of me is scared that it will feel like this forever. People have already warned me that I'm now going to be prone to early-onset arthritis. I'd like to believe I'll be on the starting line. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Virginia, United States. View my complete profile. Blogs Worth Checking Out.

TRI FOR JOY - Triathlon and Life: A new year
http://triforjoy.blogspot.com/2013/01/a-new-year.html
TRI FOR JOY - Triathlon and Life. Saturday, January 12, 2013. Global warming is real, don't let anyone tell you differently. I'm sure that a lot of it is the result of humans, but I also think it's possibly part of the cycles of climate change on this planet over millions of years. Either way, as a parent I worry about the implications. As a person, I love it! How else could I enjoy a 60 degree day on the trail in mid-January! As my little girl is getting older, though, and notices when I sweat or asks i...

TRI FOR JOY - Triathlon and Life: Rent a wetsuit or suck it up?
http://triforjoy.blogspot.com/2010/10/rent-wetsuit-or-suck-it-up.html
TRI FOR JOY - Triathlon and Life. Friday, October 1, 2010. Rent a wetsuit or suck it up? First, I'll admit that my wetsuit still doesn't fit post baby. Embarrassing, but there it is. Even if all the rest of the weight was gone, thanks to not bottle feeding RJ, the "up top" portion of me wouldn't squeeze in there anyway. (ok so there's. Benefit to having a baby! 1 $35 isn't exactly going to make the difference in paying our mortgage, rent the damn wetsuit. On the other hand. October 1, 2010 at 9:33 AM.

So i need to make a decision and i need a plan. i do not want to waste this life and i choose to not be around people who are just fucking mean. so this year is going to be the year of change. i do not want to get 10 years down the road and still be on the same path.
