Let’s Talk about The Queen

Alright boys, avert your eyes. Here we go.  Let’s talk about the Queen. I get so many emails on this topic, and I answer them ALL.  But I am feeling a little like a broken record.  So I decided to do a post about it.  Now, this is not the most appropriate forum to discuss […]

Post-Race Crabbies. Yeah, It’s Real!

As race season is cycling quickly towards us, I wanted to take a moment to be a completely Debbie Downer and tell you about what’s coming after you achieve your big goal(s). You’re so welcome in advance. Okay, okay… so I am not trying to be a downer.  But there is a very “real” side […]

Product Review & Giveaway: Waterproof iPod Shuffle from AudioFlood

Sponsored post. All opinions are my own. FTC Disclosure here. The folks at AudioFlood.com asked if they could send me a waterproof iPod shuffle and buds to review.  Yes! I was stoked. But I didn’t forget my friends either–I asked them for an extra to giveaway to one lucky ducky SBM Army member. Wahooooo!  So here […]

Everything is AWESOME!

6.85 weeks until Ironman Florida 70.3. But who is counting?  Actually, all I do these days is some sort of numerical countdown… Anyway. I am kind of taking this race on Expert-style, meaning that I am throwing a hail Mary and hoping I don’t end up in the medical tent.  (Interestingly, this is the first time […]

Swim Bike 70.3!

I want to thank you all for being my Swim Bike Shrinks over the past few months. I really considered changing the name of this blog in recent times, because there has been lots of soul-searching, namaste-inducing, psychological breakdowns and breakthroughs happening in this neck of the woods. Lots of Swim Bike Whining and Crying… […]

Three More Days ONLY!

Don’t forget to place your order for the 2014 Swim Bike Mom tri and cycling gear by Betty Designs and Zoca Gear.  Friday is the VERY last day to order (ever!).  We will NOT have stock in these so this is truly your last chance. Be a proud and loud member of the SBM Army […]

Andie & A Parenting Manifesto

Scroll down for the Manifesto. 🙂 So I dropped out of Florida 70.3 for April. But the Expert is still hot on the Florida 70.3 trail.  I agreed to go with him for a brick today (plus, I am heading to Greenville for the Two Twenty Two Duathlon next weekend and I hadn’t ridden Andie […]

Heart and Soles 5k …A Tale of Two 5ks

The first 5k I would like to discuss was today’s. I woke up early for the Heart and Soles 5k sponsored by the Atlanta Track Club.  SBM friend, Carrie, has been hounding me, saying that my motivation has been lacking because I “need a finish line!”  Meaning, I needed to race something. So I reluctantly […]

Where There’s a Wheel, There’s a Way

I have been exceptionally guilty of saying two horrible words during my triathlon journey. Two little words that are teeny… but mean so much.  Determine the outcome before the start.  Put the brakes on before the wheels even turn. I. Can’t. Recently, I have had the privelege of working with Brent Pease at All3Sports.  I […]
