1st International and 10k race!

What an experience!  Looking back, I’m in awe of the wonderful city of Montreal and the experiences I had while competing in my first international race and first 10k.  I did research, asked questions, and tried to pack appropriately, but until you actually complete your ‘first,’ it is hard to

“Iron Nun” Sister Madonna Buder is 88 years old and a multi-time triathlete.  Wow.  Just think about that for a minute.   In 2018, Scott Purks wrote that “she has competed in more than 340 triathlons and 45 full Ironmans, which require swimming 2.4 miles, biking 112 miles, and running

Training On Vacation

Vacations are needed to rest, recover, rejuvenate, and get out of a rut.  However, vacations also can cut into training opportunities and the routine/schedule one is trying to follow to prepare for a specific race.  Recently, I went to Iceland and Sweden for 10 days near the beginning of training

Changing it Up!

Over time, I have found that doing just running, biking, and swimming can be monotonous and doesn’t address all of the training I need to do for competing in a triathlon.  For me, I also need strength and endurance training, as well as ways to jolt my body so it

New Year…New Goals!  Bring it 2018!

The start of a new year means fresh beginnings, new goals, and many months of adventure.  For some, they set resolutions or goals at the beginning of the year.  These goals may change or strengthen over time.  For me, I like the word ‘goals’ over ‘resolutions,’ but that is just
