2014 marks my 20th season of doing triathlons. I will never forget my first triathlon in Harriman State Park in New York and I will always remember this Ironman in Mont Tremblant Canada. I will continue to do triathlons, but I only need to do one Ironman. With all...
I will remember. This was truly an experience of a lifetime. Not just race weekend, but all of the training and sacrifice that I made to accomplish this goal. I could never have done this without the love and support of Leland and the understanding of both Sofie and...
As I was leaving the transition, I’m not sure what I was thinking. There was a part of me that was so excited to be 2/3 of the way done with an Ironman. I remembered my friend Becky telling me that after she finished the bike in the NY/NJ Ironman in 2012 that she...

The four drains in Lynne's surgical area are supposed to be "milked" and emptied 4 times a day. We've managed to do it three times a day so far. I've been the farmer and Lynne has been Bessie. While not the most visually appealing process, I felt that since she...
