BIKES! There are very few things in this world that are as fun when you’re forty as they were when you’re four. .
17 days away from rising and I got welcomed back to riding with a perfect weather day. We’re lucky to get to do this!

Two hour easy ride just relaxing, listening to

Swimming again, trying to look forward to the improved long term potential instead of looking back at how I’ve lost fitness. .
I’ve been swimming lightly for the past four days, and it feels great to be active again. GREAT! 🏊‍♀️ .
But I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t a brain twis

Thanks to everyone who has wished me well in the varicose vein healing process. It’s been going very smoothly. .
To answer some questions: I did this as a preventative measure because while complications from varicose veins are rare, anecdotally it seems a lot of triathletes get

Throwback Thursday to skinnier days when I was running. Oh memories.....

This was eight years ago, the first season of putting out some faster times. The year before I ran a 1:53 half marathon, and I eventually did a 1:28 after deciding the previous winter to see what I was cap

You all tune in for exercise photos, well this is my daily exercise three days after surgery. .
Two 20-30min light walks a day to help keep the legs moving and facilitate recovery. .
Early on when I originally lost weight going 215lbs yo 170lbs I would beat myself up if I didn’t

Which photo do you like better for the book cover of our upcoming Triathlon Nutrition Foundations?

Funny story about this picture. We don’t have any race photos with me taking in nutrition. We were going to take one during a race this year but, well...you know...

So yesterday

So long for a while cycling!

Woke up this morning for the last group ride in a while. It started raining on the way to the meetup so I wimped out. Then after a couple hours at home I realized that after my vein surgery in a couple days I won’t be able to ride and I’d love to ri

On the podcast this week, we chat with dr_hannah_wells! She was killing it on the 70.3 circuit before lockdown. We find out about her five week illness layoff, her future plans, and more. #ironman #training #triathlete #triathlon #podcast

One of the last little runs before being off the meat sticks for a month or so. .
Thanks to everyone who sent nice words of encouragement yesterday. Staying accountable to you all makes challenges a lot easier. .
This whole “No racing, less training, and go in for surgeries thing

Needed the team to get me through that one today. The weekly gozwift rides with Team Trainiac athletes and triathletes from around the world is one of my favourite sessions of the week. .
Every week for 60mins we get to hurt some pedals together and chat way between gasps. I’ve

Global Running Day today, so the squad headed out for a team 30min run which is a rarity. .

Graycie, who’s obsessed with me, either ran faster than sh

Not training a whole lot these days, but I’m making time for a once a week leg ripper with the morning ride group. .
I feel bad not contributing more to the conversation that’s going on in the world today, but I don’t really have any knowledge to bring. That’s not a good thing; t

Looking out towards the second half of 2020 and planning a life without races in the cards. Here’s what I’ve got in mind so far...

Head in for surgery on the varicose veins that you’ve all noticed in pics and videos over the years. .
Take a BIG step back from the training volum

Flashback Friday to when I was social distancing before it was cool. .
This was Atlantic City 70.3 by delmosports, the last race I did, and a PB at 4:28. It was also the first half Ironman I did where my run didn’t let me down. These dudes and I battled the entire run and none o
