300 people turnout for the 2010 Frostbite 10 and 2 miler. We had some great weather conditions considering the cold northwest wind. HardyBreed Rabbit Tom took over 500 photos from the bottom of the fabulous HardyBreed hill just west of Bradfordton Road. Let us know what you think of the photos!

My goals for the 2010 Allerton Park Trail Race were #1: not finish behind anyone in costume and #2 beat my time from 2007. While I achieved goal #2, I'm not sure about goal #1. This race was not an A race but one I had focused on since my Ironman. While I had good intentions my training did not match my desire. However, I did put in more effort than usual for the this time of year for … [Read more...]
Just quick Google search and you can come up with some pretty good motivational pictures. The baby, one-armed push-up should be enough. Check them out here >>> … [Read more...]
4 weeks post Ironman, the family and I headed to Chicago for a nice relaxing weekend in windy city. Well, maybe not a relaxing weekend. The Chicago Marathon is one of the largest Marathons. Close to 50,000 people running, and who knows how may spectators? This marathon was somewhat stress free. I didn't have a whole lot of time and miles wrapped up in it, and didn't really have any … [Read more...]
I know I said last week that these Tuesday track workouts were quickly coming to an end, but one of our own is in the final weeks of his race finale. We are heading back to the track to give him companionship (and of course to make him hurt). That's what we do... push each other until it hurts and then we push some more. That's why we've all had great races this year. It's actually been … [Read more...]
The euphoria of the Ironman finish has turned into aimless wandering without focus. I decided to try and get out of my funk by targeting some late season running races. One of those is the Allerton Park Train Run on Halloween. In my search of the Allerton Park Train Run I happened upon the first annual Sand Creek Trail Race in support of Special Operations Warrior Foundation. The … [Read more...]
My husband( who did IMWI) thought I should share my thoughts as an observer of the Ironman race. So, I have to say first how inspiring all the athletes that competed in IMWI are, especially the ones I know! Being an athlete, i was truly amazed at the whole Ironman event, it was awesome! I went up to the race on Saturday, and met Steven and Travis at the hotel. I was surprised to find … [Read more...]
Dan and I made the last minute decision to drive up to Madison on Thursday instead of Friday. This turned out to be a critically important decision. Because we made it up to Madison early we were able to get through registration before the crowd and had time to ride portions of the course. The drive was uneventful. Having someone to talk to made the time pass and relieved some stress. … [Read more...]
I wanted to throw out a huge CONGRATS to all the rabbits that competed over the weekend. Eric Bean had a great race in Kona and was the 6th American overall. It was a cool race to watch online. Kyle Monroe had another great Ironman 6 weeks after his first. Sub-10 in Kona = awesomeness! The Chicago Marathon had many of us up to the windy city over the weekend. Great performances by … [Read more...]
