So, this race was an interesting one. First off, I want to apologize for the pics. They suck. Something is wrong with our camera. Despite me failing to PR at this race, it was still a great one. I learned a lot about how hard I can push myself. I also learned when to tail [...]
Well, it is finally the night before the Portland Marathon for me. I’m trying not be nervous for this “training run,” but I can’t help it!! Dinner with my husband and triathlon club definitely helped ease some anxiety. I could not believe how much crap I had out for this run. Whatever happened to the [...]

Racing this year feels so different from previous years. The sick nervousness that used to plague me before races has become a distant memory. I was happy and relaxed at this triathlon. Granted, all my races have been short little things so far. The only tris that I have done this year have been sprints. [...]
I was actually REALLY nervous for this race. This year, I promised myself that it would be the “Year of No Fear” when it came to racing (and life, really). Up until this race, I was doing just fine. Triathlon is a different beast entirely from running races. I’m always so afraid that I forgot [...]
