2015 CtC ride, etc..
Sept 18 - drove my car and stuff to Steve's. Transferred stuff to Steve's car, left my car in his garage. He drove. On the way, sister Patti texted me that Oak Lane had contacted Uncle David saying this will be Grandma's last day. I knew Grandma would want me to do what I loved, which is ride my bike, so I continued on to Corpus Christi. Got to ( Read more... ) -
Skees Greets Triathlon, 2014
Although this was to be my first “race” of tri season, I never train with the intent of ‘racing’ this event. This year, I was especially bad. I got in only 3 open water swims ahead of time, I borked (that’s a technical term) my right knee a couple of weeks ago by tripping over my own feet on my living room carpet and I’ve put in a crapton of bike ( Read more... ) -

River Cities #5 race report
River Cities Triathlon - the 30th (or was it 27th?) anniversary edition:
I had vowed that 2008 would be my last RCT, but I let the "pressure" (aka Lure of the Schwag) get to me. Since this was not my first RiverCitiesTriathlon rodeo, I got my hotel room first. Then it was race registration day- It's not like I am sleeping at 6am on June 1 anyway, so ( Read more... ) -
My actual first CapTexTri
After getting rained out two years ago,and having a not-so-fun volunteer experience last year, I only signed up to do anything related to CapTex 2009 due to one Kirk Offel.
Last year my friend at work Hans told me about Kirk and his cause. I became an informal "mentor" to Kirk (and I guess, ultimately the team). This year, the pressure's on - they ( Read more... )
