An active 30 something year old part time single parent to an even more active 8 year old boy navigates the world of playing taxi, sharing custody, running, biking, swimming, training for triathlons, teaching kickboxing, studying, working, dating, and in general attempting to keep all these balls in the air with a smile and a sense of humor. It's a scary, wild, crazy adventure (good thing I thrive on adventure) that I am happy to share.

Ironman - Triathlon from the Inside Out
If you ever want to know what it's like to do a triathlon (or in this case an Ironman) from an athlete's point of view. Here you go! This is about as real as it gets...a triathlete's view of the world on race day.
* Please note the sound of the cowbells at about the 5:00 mark...I know they may seem silly and annoying to spectators, but out on the road...it's music to our ears! Those cowbells can break us from a funk, they can let us know that we are close to civilization again, and they can lift our spirits...most importantly they can make us smile!!! Just knowing that someone is out there willing to cheer us on and bring a little cowbell to the occasion definitely makes us smile. So silly or not, please...I gotta have more cowbell! :)
