I’ve been hiding a bit of issue. I’m a triathlete scared of the bike. First, let me back up. Last May, with no experience of riding a road bike, I signed up for a triathlon. No problem I thought. I’m a regular at spin class, how hard can it be? Well, I found out it… Continue reading Triathlete Scared of the Bike

Running After An Injury
For the past two months, I haven’t been able to run due to an injury. From the what the doctors can tell, I had serious soft tissue damage in my left leg. It’s one of those fun injuries where the doctors aren’t sure how you got it, and the only cure is rest. And as… Continue reading Running After An Injury
Finding Sacramento Podcast
I had the best time on the Finding Sacramento podcast! Earlier this year, I sat down with the host, Nathan Miller, and we chatted about so many things including Sacramento, marathons, triathlons, blogging, sobriety, and finding balance in life.

Beyond the basics, like trying to get my swim cap and goggles to stay on, I struggle to remember what lap I’m on during a long swim.

MyYogaWorks | A Review
I never thought I’d write this, but I love yoga. That’s because for as long as I can remember it just hasn’t been my thing. I’ve even blogged about my dislike for yoga. I love the idea, the culture of yoga, but the actual practice made me crazy. When I’d actually take a yoga… Continue reading MyYogaWorks | A Review
from marathon to Triathlon
Less than two weeks until my first marathon! I am so excited. This is the first time since the high school cross country team that I’ve trained for something this long. And I’ve loved the whole process. It’s been fun figuring out my weekly workout schedule, calculating my mileage, and cross training to… Continue reading from marathon to Triathlon
