I woke up this morning ready to rock!  A part of the reason I am soooo ready to do this is I want to get back to being a better mommy.  I am not going to lie, it has been tough trying to balance the mommy thing with the pro athlete thing.  Gabriella has been [...]

Today was great! Opened up the morning with a trip to Lava Java for a big fat latte.  I went early as to miss the masses-Chris, Gabriella and I went down at about 7:45 am and had a nice leisure morning.  We hung out, had some coffee, some breakfast and then took off as the [...]

I have been on the island since September 26 and I apologize for not having more updates.  I thought I would be having more time to update but alas, time is something I am very short on. Here is a quick update.
Training has been going great.  I had a few hicups prior to leaving for Kona [...]

I have been back from Michigan for three weeks now and I am fully into my Ironman training for Kona.  My cycling has been going great, I have had 3 long rides ranging from 5:20 to 6:10 and all have been epic, each better than the next.  There is something to be said about going [...]

Now that the stress has subsided from my most recent experience there is something else I want to share.  After all is said and done, I will tell you this; I was not suppose to do Vineman.  My training leading to Vineman had its ups and downs that is for sure.  I would have a [...]

It is official.  My Guru is back on my property.  We went up to Santa Rosa today to pick it up and we met the full crew of detectives. It was great fun to give these guys a hug and talk about the whole ordeal.  The details of them meeting stealer boy at a burger joint, holding the [...]

Okay people.  THIS IS THE STUFF I AM TALKING ABOUT!! You can not make this stuff up.  Yes, my bike is back.  An unbelievable roller coaster story but it can happen no other way in my world apparently.  While everyone was racing Sunday I was out driving the race course looking for my bike, driving [...]

I know I have not posted in a while.  Hubby gone on wild fires, busy training for Vineman, tired at night, yada yada.  I headed up to Vineman Saturday, arrived around 3pm for pro meeting, hung around a bit, turned in my T2 stuff and went off to my homestay in Santa Rosa that the [...]

I made it back from the 70.3 race in Hawaii.  Chris had to be at work Sunday at 8am so I had to take the redeye Saturday night after the race.  I got into SF at 6am on Sunday, made it home by 6:30am, hung out with Chris for an hour before he left for [...]

On Sunday May 18 I did a local race here in the bay area; Uvas triathlon.  It is a little longer than a sprint on a nice roller type course in Morgan Hill. The last time I did that race was in 2003 so I really had no idea what to expect.  Also, given the [...]
