2009

It's hard to believe that we are already 3 months into 2009...and that I haven't updated this blog since July of last year! While I have been delinquent in updates, my life has never been happier, healthier, or more complete.

After Ironman Coeur D'Alene last year, I had a terrific summer of resting and allowing my body to recover. I stayed active, raced the LA Tri (oly), ran a few 10K races, and worked on my golf game a bit too. And, more important than anything, my personal life is overflowing with happiness!

And now it's time for another season of triathlon. My A event this year will be the Vineman Full Ironman on August 1st up in Sonoma, California. My goal will be to finish in under 11 hours, which will take quite an effort. But I am up for the challenge!

Leading up to the Vineman, I will race two half Iron races: Oceanside on April 4th and Wildflower on May 2nd. I raced both of these last year, and they are favorite venues. I look forward to trying and improving on both of my times from last year. I am also looking into a few local sprint and oly distance races throughout the year.

So, with a week to go before Oceanside, I am feeling excited, fit, and ready for a great year.
