Oh dear.

I've neglected my blog.

In the nearly two years since I updated last I've had some big changes. Relationship stuff, triathlon stuff...

I've raced all sorts of races and had some great experiences. I parted ways with my husband but we're working on making the best possible relationship for our kids. I've found another relationship in the process. I've relocated. I've been officially injured, and now I'm pretty much fixed. I've gotten a lot stronger as an athlete, but especially pacing on the run and power on the bike. I placed in nearly every race I did last year.

I had big plans for this year, but had a hiccup with some injuries that required some serious physical therapy.

This weekend I'm racing Ironman Providence 70.3, my second half iron distance race. My first big race after my injury. It's also my first official WTC Ironman brand race. I'll be riding my beautiful Kestrel Airfoil tri bike (big step up from my old roadie Trek). The distances and circumstances may have changed but I'm still a glutton for punishment. Farther, faster... The usual.

My goals have changed slightly... A full ironman at the end of this year... Age Group Nationals next year. Kona eventually.

Race report and some catching up to do on Sunday, I'm sure.
