I take it I’ve told you about my condition? Plantar fasciitis…in both of my feet. But I’m happy to report that the injury subsided and I made a happy return to racing this past weekend, placing eighth in the San Francisco Pan American Cup!

I just got home from the last race of the season – the San Francisco Continental Cup – and I have to say it was probably the most solid performance of my entire race season! Speaking of the 2008 season, it’s been a long one. I started on January 6th in Chile and have done
That is what was going through my mind yesterday at Scott Tinley’s Adventures. As it turns out my brakes weren’t rubbing, I was just having an off day. A really bad horribly awful off day. Even the weather was bad – it varied from a misty rain to a moderate downpour all morning. It was

I got interviewed before the race by IMG – they produce the race coverage that will air on NBC later in the year. My question for the interviewer beforehand: Are you sure you want to interview me?! With a tenth place finish I might have some air time in the race coverage – they especially
Wow, what an awesome race. The course was spectacular with the bay and the Golden Gate Bridge in the backdrop (although I didn’t get to enjoy it too much during the race!). I had a solid day with a tenth place finish – it’s nice to have my name up amongst some great athletes in

I’m racing in the Escape from Alcatraz Triathlon in San Francisco this weekend. I haven’t raced in about 6 weeks so this is a much needed break from training! I don’t know too much about the course as this is the first time I have raced at Alcatraz, but I do know there are lots
