It feels as if I’ve done this before. It feels like I’ve been to this site, updated this page, searched for some neat and interesting photos to accompany whatever words I might find to incorporate into these paragraphs. I feel I’ve done it all before. But this time, it is different. In the past, I’ve […]

And so it begins. When the group workouts began in June, 2013 for my last (and first) Team in Training triathlon, I was unable to attend the entire first week due to a trip I was on with my bicycle and some friends. Two of the other people I was with were also interested in […]

NOW look what I’ve gone and done. You might wonder what the bleep I’m thinking, signing up to compete in the Triathlon at Pacific Grove in September. To tell you the truth, I’m wondering the same thing. It’s been a few years since I first opened the curtains to cautiously peek outside the window that […]

Team in Training has been such an incredible experience. I am going to be encouraging everyone who has ever thought about taking up cycling to join throughout this year and train with me to complete the Little Ride around the Big Lake in 2013. There were people on our team who, when we began, hadn’t […]
