Super Sunday
Today. Was. Awesome. 1) My girl, Charlie, finished her first 70.3! And not only, that – she smoked it. Look for her race report soon! Go, Charlie! 2) I met one of my super de duper Swim Bike Mom friends at Silver Comet today during a ride. Funny thing is that we’ve never met […]
Still a Big Fat Sissy
Eleven mile run completed today. Whoop. During the run, I made the 5.5 mile turnaround, and saw a dad and son running towards me. I seem to remember seeing them last week. The remarkable thing about these two guys: they were both very heavy, big dudes. The dad was pushing 350, and the son, […]

Underwater Tuneage
Excited. H20Audio is sending me some underwater tunes gear to try out and review. I can’t wait.
