Giant Acorn Oly – Double

By |2014-10-05T13:41:00-04:00October 5th, 2014|

We woke up early again for part 2 of the Giant Acorn Double weekend.  I was tired but also excited as I knew even more of my tri pals were racing this one.  Again, we had great weather and this time a bunch of my pals were near me in transition which made it a [...]

Giant Acorn Sprint Race Report – The Double

By |2014-10-05T13:40:00-04:00October 5th, 2014|

After worlds I wasn't sure I would do Giant Acorn.  It was a tumultuous few weeks and I was tired.  However, one of my 2014 goals was to place in my age group with the Set Up Events VTS/MTS series.  I needed a 5th race in order to achieve this, which is why this race [...]

2014 70.3 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS

By |2014-10-05T11:22:00-04:00October 5th, 2014|

The good news, is that I am now a 70.3 World Championship finisher.   A year ago, I never would have imagined this could happen THIS year.  I definitely far exceeded my lofty goals that were set at the start of 2014...hence 3 trips to Canada, haha. This is the first year the World Championship was [...]

IMMT Race Report Part 3…The Run

By |2014-08-30T10:37:00-04:00August 30th, 2014|

.... Continued fromIMMT Swim and BikeOf course, I forgot to un-velcro my shoes to slip them out for a "flying dismount"as I pedaled away from conquering the punchy climbs of Chemin Duplessis and back into the village area for transition.  I know hassling about seconds in an ironman might be a tad silly, but it [...]

Tidewater Triathlon Race Report

By |2014-08-09T09:04:00-04:00August 9th, 2014|

We woke up at ridiculous o'clock and headed to the beach for a sprint triathlon on ironman legs.  It could have been a bit nerve wrecking trying to do a high intensity triathlon in the midst of long course training but I went in focused and determined to have a great race.   I was there [...]

Mont Tremblant 70.3 Race Report

By |2014-06-30T21:02:00-04:00June 30th, 2014|

Getting There:Nick, Trish (my long time training pal & massage therapist) and I headed off for the long road trip to Mont Tremblant.  "There's no Canada like French Canada"!  We racked the bikes on the back of the Subaru and before we even got a few hours in we were caught up in traffic that [...]

Falling Short Before the Big Day

By |2014-06-28T14:41:00-04:00June 28th, 2014|

This is not about Mont Tremblant 70.3.  That was a great race and a fantastic venue.  I'll write up a race report and share some beautiful photos soon.   Instead, I'm posting about my disappointment in where I am fitness-wise leading to the ironman.  I tend to set big goals.  I tend to make a [...]

Jamestown Olympic Triathlon Report

By |2014-06-08T13:03:00-04:00June 8th, 2014|

The Jamestown Olympic distance course is flat, fast and fun in historic Williamsburg.  The day delivered beautiful race conditions and an exciting competitive field.  I'm discovering that I truly enjoy these Set Up Events series races because they are so well run.  Nick helped me set up, zipped up my suit & saw me through the [...]
