I was raised in a kitchen and my mother is a chef. I read cookbooks and food resources as if they are novels and text books; then, I write my own rules…

Very often they initiated the conversation and almost every time, they were seeing their very first triathlon and who they were supporting was doing their very first triathlon.

Our holiday gift guides last year were filled with many out of the ordinary gift ideas – we figured you could find the usual ones on your own. We discovered, got from fellow triwives at recent races, or thought up some more for this year that we really love, so are updating our holiday gift guide for 2014.

Okay, moms, let’s talk reality! We honestly do have the best laid out plans, but how many times do we forget about us in those plans? And, it’s not simply forgetting, but rather it’s pushing our needs aside to meet those of our kids, significant others, four-legged kids, getting settled in a new house and community, and then all those wonderful things we volunteer for….
