A runDisney Meetup RoadTrip to Atlanta

Comments 7 comments

A classic example of being in the right place at the right time. In cyberworld, that is. A few days ago, there was this tweet from @rundisney, that I honestly didn’t give a second thought to. I mean, what are the odds that they’d pick Atlanta, right? It's official! #runDisney Meet-Ups are going on the road. More details to come… #OnTheRoadToDisney — runDisney (@runDisney) October 29, 2013 And then, at about 10:40am as I was idly browsing facebook, waiting for…

Spectating a Race with Kids

Spectating a Race with Kids

This past weekend, I was at Augusta for the 70.3 Half Ironman. Not to race it, but to support and cheer my husband in this first (almost) triathlon. I’ve always known that I’ve missed my calling as a race cheerleader because the next best thing to being in the race is cheering the racers. I love the adrenalin rush and love the overwhelming feeling of motivation that comes over me. I’m quite ready to hulk over and sign up for…

Hills, Hills, and More Hills – A 13.1

Hills, Hills, and More Hills – A 13.1

My race report for the 13.1 AllState Atlanta ends right at the title – it was hills, hills and more hills. This was Half Marathon #8 (or is it 9?) and surprisingly the first one after Alien Half Marathon LAST YEAR in August!! Even though I’ve run 2 marathons since August. I had done this race 3 years ago and it was Half #2. It was the old course and hilly at that time. It was the new course and…

I love reading blog posts by some amazing people and have found plenty of gems. I thought it would be cool to share it and also to document it so I can come back and look at it whenever I want to. So with that thought, this is a start of my Tuesday Favorites post. (That doesn’t really rhyme. It should be Friday Favorites, but Friday is my Pinspiration Friday. So hmm… “Weekly Favorites”?  Or move it to another day…

I am constantly amazed at how the Universe sends signals in the most random places that can influence or empower us if we are listening. Life and running/triathlon are so intertwined with each other that there are plenty of life lessons to be learned from running/triathlon and vice-versa. Last week, I attended a triathlon transition clinic by Dan Arnett of Endurance Concepts, an Atlanta based coaching group. While it had the basics of transition (the what, the why and the how),…

My Little Tech Junkie!

My Little Tech Junkie!

Comments 4 comments

Just when I wrote the Tech Junkie or Tech Slave post, kidlet #2 (4) demonstrated that she is a chip off the old block by “running” all around the house but insisting that she wear my Garmin for it. And when she finished – she wanted to see how far she had run and how fast!! Goes to show how much we influence our kids! Do your kids imitate you and want to use your gadgets? Other than the usual…
