Stay Tuned for the Big Reveal!

I know you're all excited and anxiously awaiting another race report. Fear no more, I've got another on the horizon! In approximately 19 days I'll be doing the Indianapolis Marathon relay. I've got a great team aptly named Team JadeAlexisRennayTiffany. If you missed that, it's Team JART. I'll be running the anchor and bringing in the last 7.15 miles. Meaning I should probably run more.

But now to the big reveal. Ladies and gentlemen, I am planning next year's racing season but the problem is that these silly people are taking far too long to post next year's dates! So stay tuned and I will do the big reveal of all of next year's races including my A race! Will it be Lake George? CapTexTri? But wait, what about Tri24? Oh I know the suspense is killing you!

  1. Oh, I hope it's the Tri in Austin! Then maybe you will motivate me to do it too. I am still a big chicken when it comes to wimming (I never learned how as a kid) and so right now I only have a duathlon on the books. Well, regardless of what you decide I know you will kill it!

  2. Do you live in Texas? I lived in Dallas for a bit a couple years ago. I didn't technically learn how to swim until college and didn't start swimming for fitness and tris until May. I also didn't learn to ride a bike until May so I know what it means to be freaked out by a tri. I used to be a runner and now unfortunately kind of hate running so I think I should stick to aquabikes. Dus sound like hell! Good job completing it!

  3. Yep! I live in San Antonio.

    I do like to swim, I am just not good at it and I don't know how to do it correctly- like I don't know how to hold my breath underwater. I keep saying I will sign up for swimming lessons but lack the motivation. Right now I have four big events coming up in the next four months, none of which involve water, so I have just been focused on training for those. We'll see if I can make a tri happen next year!

  4. I think you forgot Rev3! :) I had a dream about it last night! I told Alex about Tri24, and he laughed and shook his head like we were crazy. Then I told him the runs were 5Ks, and he said, "oh.... hmmmm I can run a 5K!"

    I am so excited for this month, I hope to get some biking in, and the info session for team in training is this month!

    I agree with Dacia, (Hi Dacia!) about swimming. I can swim, but not any sort of proper technique way.

  5. I work on Sundays and most Rev3 oly races are on Sundays I think. It's a bummer. Let me know how the TNT info session goes! Those coaches will fix your swimming technique in a hurry I bet.

Why I Hate the Ironman

I figure it's about time to put this out there and I'm pretty sure if you know me really well, you won't be surprised by any of what I have to say. I've been having a lot of issues lately. I've been working hard with my counselor to determine who I really am and what brings me true joy in life and it's been surprising, frustrating, difficult, fun, exhausting, enlightening, exciting and hard....to sum it up in a few words. I spent some time in Puerto Rico back in March and finally got back into doing some writing while I was out there. It wasn't anything long and certainly not anything particularly newsworthy but it made me feel good. I enjoy writing. When I was young I used to write short fiction stories on my mom's computer whenever I had free time and though a lot of them remained unfinished, they were always fun for me and surprisingly effortless to compose. Blogging has never quite been the same as my true writing and I've been working hard t

A Sad Announcement

It is with a very heavy heart that I make an announcement. Because this is where I spend so much time recapping my races and weight loss struggles and successes, it seems that this is where the announcement needs to be made. I told The Colonel earlier this evening when I got home from school close to tears and I need to make it official before I change my mind. I will not be doing an olympic triathlon this year. Sounded much more serious than that, didn't it? Well all joking aside, it is serious to me. In my mind, I'm now a quitter. I'm a wimp. I'm giving up on my goals and soon will start giving up on all of them. This isn't the case of course but for now it's really hard for me to be rational. I am a goal setter and rarely has there ever been a goal I didn't *eventually* reach. So for me to seriously and actually "give up" is heartbreaking. I'm also abandoning my quest to lose 40 more pounds this year. It would be great if it happened, but I

Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure 10K Race Recap

Wow, what a title right? Although I also could have titled it the greatest race of my life. Wanna know why? Yeah I thought you might. The week leading up to the race wasn't a great one. Stress at work, general grumpiness etc. etc. etc. So I really wasn't expecting much as far as performance but I wanted to get a 10K in really badly before the marathon relay this Saturday so I thought What the hell and signed up. The atmosphere at Komen events is like none other. Pink everywhere and people....so...many...people. For someone who hates crowds (i.e. ME) there are few things that will lure me to a crowded place. Races just tend to be one of those things. Anyway, there was a great survivors parade and all kinds of booths and music and general funness. What there wasn't plenty of was parking. Which I guess is the norm for an event of this caliber. Survivors' Parade Great Ladies I never got the chance to meet... Seriously packed at the start! Autumn Alexis, The Colonel and I g
