Tomorrow is my last race of 2010. Ironman Arizona. I’m off to polish the stars. Wish me luck!

10 days ago the fate of my Ironman Arizona prep was a dreary one. Daylight savings was looming, days were dark, short and cold. Nearly all my training sessions were taking place in the man-cave (God Bless the Man Cave!). Most my Missoula training partners have disappeared deep into the off-season. On tap for the weekend was a 5-6 hour ride. Chris was headed off fishing for the weekend - I was needing some motivation!

Come train with me in Tucson, Arizona the first week in February at The Cycling House!

The Cycling House will be playing host to the very best triathletes, and you’re invited to join. Your training partners will be pro traithletes Linsey Corbin and Brendan Halpin. Linsey won Ironman Coeur D’Alene this summer, was the top American at Ironman World’s in 2008, and can be found on the podium at almost every big race.

Aloha from Kona, Hawaii!!

I came over to the Island with my mom over two weeks ago to put the final finishing touches on my Ironman Hawaii prep. The work has been done and the race is less than a week away. Exciting!!

I am on day 5 of no caffeine. With Ironman Hawaii in less than a month, I’ve formed the “Ironman safety bubble”, been abiding by 9pm bedtime, eating clean & healthy, and cut out the caffeine. How come?
