New blog

Hey,

Starting with this new blog. We'll have it linked through Athletes Lounge website, Facebook, our twitter feeds. Racing/training updates, pics from races, the family, etc...

Raced the Subaru Sooke Pro Chase yesterday....fun, tough(!) course. Probably the hilliest Olympic Distance race I've done, racing a bunch of young guys from the NTC in Victoria. 13th, not a great result, but happy with the effort on a course that doesn't suit me well. I made a good move early on the bike, but lost it later. Still ran 34 min 10k, which wasn't bad considering everything.

Hung out after the race a while, then got back home by that night. I think a lot of people were surprised I raced, with a 1 week old boy at home, but Sarah runs things here and did fine. Great start to the second 1/2 of the season, I know what I need to work on, and excited to be at my best by October/November.
