back in the saddle
After a bit of a break after Barb’s, it is GAME ON for The Next Big Thing. Obviously my biggest focus is my swim, and then the bike. But don’t worry, I’m running, too 🙂 I love this stuff. I’ve had some awesome rides. Like hanging on through more of the speedy Saturday ride than…

a necessary snickers
Good ride today — a strong pace with the Saturday crew over to Riverside to meet up with some other clubs and groups, and then off on the fast part of the loop. I usually get dropped fairly quickly, but today I hung in much longer. I wasn’t planning to, as I was really going…

not so much…
Yes, I know, another post right after a race report. I figured I needed to have the race report up before moving on to the recovery 😉 So after the race, and the day at Disney, plus still recoving a bit from the being sick and the rib, I was sore. I was tired. I…

Disney Du

first cycling race
This Sunday Mike and I headed to Piru, a bit north of the LA area, for our first cycling race: a 20k Time Trial. I needed to do another FTP test, so this seemed like a good way to do it. Dark and early we packed up the bikes and headed out, only forgetting the…

a week with two races
Holiday race season is here in full swing! I joined the Exceeding Expectations crew for a couple more races, a 15k and then a tri (which Mike also did). This time instead of helping during race time, we helped them get set up and ready and then raced on our own. The EE kids had…

holiday habits
The holidays. Eating too much, and getting lazy… no thanks. This year Mike and I had our first family Thanksgiving – just us and donutdogg. And I’m please to say that (well, until the donut I just had) I was coming out of the holiday weekend feeling in better shape than going in. With just…
