The Park City Tri was one of the funnest and the hardest a things I have ever done. It all started about 18 months ago when my brother-in-law an avid ultra runner had the idea of changing 30 people’s lives (he was turning 30) and helping them with what he knew a lot about, running [...]

I am new to the whole multisport scene so when I came upon the Bad Ass competition at the battle at midway I was instantly intrigued, all that work in just 24 hrs sounded like a serious challenge and butt whooping. I have only completed two sprint triathlons and the Oly distance Tuachon Duathlon so [...]
I never really know what to expect at a new event. This is only my first year. Reading the Transition area directions over and over got me a little confused. Two different Transition areas? Are you serious? In the end I think it was pretty fun; not very fun setting up the transition. Since I [...]
Back in May my amazing hubby competed in his second Ironman race. I worked as a volunteer and had a great time. There is such a fanastic energy around these amazing endurance athletes that I “caught the bug” I decided I wanted to do a triathlon. The hubby wrote me a plan and I turned [...]
This past Saturday over two thousand well trained athletes invaded the bustling metropolis of Burley, Idaho for the 2010 Lion’s Club Spudman Triathlon. This small farming community is more than accommodating and greeted us with open arms and freshly tuned cowbells. Packet pick up the night before was met with some rain showers but didn’t [...]
Oh how the Triathlon Gods smiled on everyone at Scofield this last weekend! The morning started off cloudy for the first 2+ hours or so until it finally got up to 80 degrees in the heat of the day. I had the pleasure of doing my first “Escape” distance, and let me tell you what [...]

A lunatic, by definition, is a person afflicted with temporary insanity due to the phases of the moon. Since many have called me a lunatic with respect to my love of endurance racing, it only seemed fitting to sign up as soon as I saw the notice for the Lunatic Triathlon in Price. The Lunatic [...]
Just 23 Miles North East from Park City, Echo Reservoir is one of my favorite venues to race triathlon. After my experience last year, it quickly made it’s way onto my permanent tri calendar. This year, we brought the whole SBR Tri team to compete and were not disappointed. Echo is one big party from [...]
