I coach high school swim and love it!

Racing changes the older you get and with life. My life has been very stressful, I work a lot now, my dad passed away a couple of weeks ago and my husband fell off a roof and broke his hip. My training has suffered and my mental game is nonexistent. Janae got me a free bib so I said why not. Climbed almost 800 feet in the first 4.5 so that really put a damper on my time. Stomach was sloshy so I got side aches which is no fun and slows you down but I didn't really care about a fast finish time I just wanted some good downhill which I got. And it was a beautiful day!

sorry to hear -- those are all big, stressful/sad events, and it certainly takes a big toll on running. i hope your husband is recovering ok.

it's nice that you could still get out and race and enjoy the beautiful day. that canyon is so pretty and peaceful, esp after you get over that big little mountain. :)

hope for better days ahead! take care.

Thanks Allie, I actually thought of you and our run down that canyon and it made me happy😊 You are one of the people I am glad to have meet through this blog and am happy we can still keep in touch through running.
