75% health and fitness, 25% life and 100% me!
Think back to a time in your life when things weren't going so well. I bet that now yo can see exactly how you got yourself into that situation and what you should have done (maybe sooner) to get yourself out. In that case it's time that gave you the distance you needed to take... Continue Reading →
Part of the reason I wrote a post about race bibs a few weeks ago was in preparation for this post. You can tell from the title of this post what I decided to do but I did have the opportunity to think about it, which I did first. But I ultimately decided to report... Continue Reading →
Do you ever have one of those moments where you’re like “holy crap I know a lot about this!” Well that happened to me a few weeks ago. My next door neighbor is going through her second trimester hardcore nesting stage and she discovered canning. She was taking me all sorts of questions and get... Continue Reading →
Have you ever wondered why we wear race bibs with numbers on them. Neither did I for a long, long time and some reasons I kinda knew like timing but it’s actually WAY more nuanced than that! I dug into it after that former beauty queen in the USA got some of her ultra results... Continue Reading →

Not every post on here is going to be super serious but if I’ve had a problem chances are someone else has to. With that in mind I bring you, drumroll please, a list of things to do before you paint your nails! A few years back I resolved for new years to stop bitting.... Continue Reading →
I wasn’t sure until I got closer to the end of training if there would be big life changing lessons from my first olympic triathlon. I think that doing something big like this pushes you to do your growing at an accelerated rate. This time it revealed some strengths I didn’t know I had and... Continue Reading →
If I could design my perfect life I’d spend a lot more of it on my mountain bike but since I don't do much extreme stuff and like all my bones in one piece I won’t be making a living from that any time soon. Everyone knows, okay all bikers know, that roadies and mountain... Continue Reading →
