Adventures in endurance sports, dog parenting, and other challenges. Saturday, September 21, 2013. The Toughest Sprint- Sprint the Gaps! Last weekend was a good and tough time.

We had a busy day the day before without a whole lot of sleep. Karen with the newest member of ATC post- race! After that there was a lot of climbing- I mean a...

Adventures in endurance sports, dog parenting, and other challenges. Tuesday, May 21, 2013. Ironman Texas Race Report- 2013. First of all, I want to say that I So enjoyed training and racing with the IM TX group. We didn’t all always train together but it was really fun the times we did. There were plenty of long epic indoor rides over the winter, pouring rain outdoor rides, and other fun stuff. Excited that pretty much the whole crew is signed up for Roth! Check out that banner! Looks like there is plen...

I was thinking "This is awful. I can't believe I am feeling so bad so soon! This was definitely at the beginning. Overall, the whole thing was Not exactly how I pictured it going several months ago, but things happen! I was quite happy to get off my bike. I tried to put on a brave face for friends and family...

Adventures in endurance sports, dog parenting, and other challenges. Wednesday, May 9, 2012. St George 2012: Amazing and Terrible. On a hot day last summer, I had just finished IM Louisville and was contemplating signing up for a spring IM. I was stressed out about IM FL looming ahead and felt like I needed another ‘shot’ at Kona since I didn’t think I had a good chance for qualifying at Florida. And there were several of us signed up/almost signed up and ready to go! There were whitecaps that I would le...

Adventures in endurance sports, dog parenting, and other challenges. Tuesday, October 1, 2013. Augusta 70.3 Race Report 2013. We definitely had the best Augusta trip this year! We had over forty folks racing from ATC. I was especially excited to see the performances of those I've been individually coaching- Heather, Sondra, and Rich as they’ve been working very hard and were coming into this race rested and raring to go! Right before heading down the ramp to start the swim I was chatting with some folks ...

Adventures in endurance sports, dog parenting, and other challenges. Friday, August 9, 2013. Ten Pieces of Unconventional Advice for New Triathletes. Here is a post I wrote for the tri club blog on unconventional advice for new triathletes! Not that a similar thought has ever gone through my head, of course. Actual ETA:never) The point is that the improvement curve is steeper when you first begin regular training and it’s important to celebrate the big achievements as well as the smaller ones. I have fal...

Adventures in endurance sports, dog parenting, and other challenges. Saturday, August 31, 2013. Ironman Louisville Race Report 2013. ATC Underwear Run Most Colorful. John came in on Friday night and was super helpful and encouraging. I was starting to get upset and worried about if I could run and if I should even do the race since it was hurting more and more just to walk around. John kept telling me that adrenaline would get me through and once I got started I would barely notice it. The Bike- I knew m...
