Denver Half Marathon (10/19/08)
- I finally managed to get this website revamped a bit and updated for 2009! I will also be adding a BLOG anyday now, which I will be updating with photos., thoughts, etc. on at least a weekly basis. Hopefully I'll have some interesting stuff to keep you coming back! (1/5)
- It's been a challenging couple of weeks. I got sick with the flu about two weeks ago and despite all efforts was not able to get over it in time to be able to compete in Clearwater. Definitely a dissapointment, but after a 7 month season I am more relieved to just have some time off. 2-3 weeks of rest now and then back at it. Congrats to everyone who did race this weekend in FL and especially to Terenzo Bozzone, who came out and absolutely dominated! (11/9)
- The Riptide Multisports new team website is now online! Check it out to see what's new with the team! (10/27)
- Ran the Denver half yesterday. Had perfect weather for a run, unfortunately my legs were shot from the past few weeks of heavy training. Even so, I still managed to run a 1:20 at elevation... hopefully this means that I'm on track to run 1:18-ish off the bike in Florida in a couple weeks. Now, the countdown to 70.3 World's begins!
