Have I told you all about Christy? Tommy’s sister? I know I have mentioned her a few times. But, did I ever give her credit for being the […]

I went to a spinning class this AM. I had to get up and out, do something. I can’t believe how far off the training-track I have fallen. Time is ticking! Almost less than two months before the triathlon!

Sarah showed me how to use the indoor spinning machines today. I have no idea how far I went or how fast I was going, as that information is no where to be found on the machine. But I cycled for 30 solid minutes. It was pretty easy… of course I had it on a […]

Christy and I met at the park with the intention of riding our bikes on one of the trails. It was a beautiful day and a great opportunity to get some trail riding in.

I met Tommy’s co-worker and new (but good) friend “Britt” this past weekend. Throughout the evening, Britt mentioned his insecurity about his weight more than once — he used it as the butt of his jokes most of the evening.
