I recently was unable to attend one of my husband’s races. In all the years he has been doing triathlons, I have been to almost every single one, seriously. There were several local races in the early years that he went to with his first coach and good friend and I stayed home. But since then, I’ve tagged along as cheerleader, shoulder to lean on,…

My family LOVES Taco Night and I do, too. It just seems to make dinner fun…..This recipe will serve a crowd and you should have leftovers on hand for the week for breakfast tacos or nachos after school. Not only do they taste great, but you can use ingredients to fit everyone’s preferences and essentially make them individualized. In my household, I have to make…

Okay, it’s finally April and I’m in the mood for thinking about vacations. I’ve had it with winter and being cooped up at home. I did get one vacation in February and guess what we did, SKIED!!!!! Didn’t even get to leave winter behind. But, I digress. Trying to decide where I want to go on vacation got me thinking about traveling with my trihubby…

I’m so proud of my triathlete. After taking pretty much most of last year off from serious training and coming off a bad chest cold over the past month, he rocked Ironman 70.3 Oceanside. I, unfortunately, was not there to cheer him on – one of the very few races I have missed. But of course, I had friends to take my place – even…

For all of us triwives, this is a way of life that we support and like to make part of our family lifestyle. Over the next few weeks, we will share with you how…

We just loved this post by John Bergquist, an aspiring endurance athlete, who blogs as Fit Knight. In it, he praises his trisupporter wife and recognizes he could not do the sport without her by his side…..We so went aaaaah, so just had to share….Plus, we loved how he chose his name – It was from an old videogame handle he had and because a knight…

Yesterday morning all was well in my world. I had just taken my husband’s bike to a local store to be picked up by Tribike Transport for Ironman 70.3 Oceanside. I was so looking forward to the trip to California. Many of our friends are doing the race and we were going to see family, including my husband’s 98 year old aunt. Plus, I was…

Okay, first stop laughing. It is possible. We’ve seen the phenomenon and even experienced it over the years. Remember, as your triathlete is working out and feeling good about themselves – good body image, confidence, passion – you get what we mean – it just might make them feel more romantic and guess what, you reap the benefits! We decided to look at the definition…

This year feels very odd to me. We only have one race on the schedule, IMAZ. It was my trihubby’s first Ironman and will remain special in that way. I am very excited to go back, but it seems super weird that the season is starting so late and may only have one race on the schedule. But, I was truly taken aback when he…

We have found over the years that living with a triathlete provides many unforgettable and often unbelievable statements that give pause. Some of what comes out of their mouths just has to be shared. But, we’ve also found it’s not just the triathlete that utters these comments; we’re often just as guilty as is the rest of the family. So, we decided in the spirit of being…

It’s National Meatball Day!!! Meatballs have been a staple in our culture and are a comfort food for many. They seem to be gaining in popularity these days, with restaurants even popping up devoted to them, such as The Meatball Shop in NYC. Since they are also one of my favorites, I decided to share one of my recipes. Meatless meatballs are one of the…

It took me a while to nail this one down…because let’s face it, once “The Season” starts, it doesn’t feel like there is EVER a non-triathlon weekend. If it isn’t a Race Weekend, then it is a Pre-Race Weekend, a Post-Race Recovery Weekend, or an Essential Training Weekend. What?!? Ok, ok, maybe I’m getting ahead of myself. Maybe I need to define these terms before…
