Yup, it runs in the family...racing that is! Our little noodle, or Sophie, as she's more commonly known, is about to take part in her 2nd Weiner Nationals race! She'll take on the best of the Bay on Sunday, July 29th in the running of the wieners. (I just love saying that!) In her first run at the wiener national title she finished 3rd! Not bad for her freshman endeavor...check out the pics! :) ...

Words can’t accurately describe the pre-race morning of an IronMan. Thousands of focused athletes walking through their rituals, friends and family all carrying cameras and wearing brightly colored clothes, water bottles and powerbar wrappers everywhere! It’s remarkable!

The Swim: Holy Beans! Not for the faint hearted. I’ve heard it described as a washing machine, an LA traffic jam, spawning salmon,, a boxing match but ...

And that’s the first goal, to finish 140.6 miles in somewhere under 16 hours 59mins. Hopefully, we’ll finish well under the time limit, but the first goal is always ‘just’ to finish! ...
