Ambassador Spotlight: Kimberly Guinn

Every so often (I would say “weekly”–but who knows if I am that consistent!), I will spotlight one of our Ambassador Team members. The first up is Kimberly Guinn. Her story did not begin during the 2014 Ironman 70.3 New Orleans–but it was the lead-up to that event where her life–and the lives of so many […]

Beautiful Backroads, Bikes, Beer…

Big training week just happened, and I appear to be somewhat on a recovery week, since I only have 6 hours of training on my schedule. With the Expert traveling to Canada this week for work, I am grateful to Coach Brett for the recovery. A little midday half marathon on Thursday.  Ran into pro […]

The “Team” Aftermath… and the Next Big Thing

The First 100 of 2014

Walk Softly, Have Hope

This is a good reason to be an early morning triathlete.  The view on the way to ride yesterday.  Ahhhh… Oh, yes. My feet still hurt like hell. The Swim Bike Boy Child said, “Mom, that foot looks like a dead foot.” I don’t disagree with him.   I mean, look at it. I feel […]
