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…

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…

Hence, we were back…

SHERRY chose RELEASE: to free from something that confines, constrains, or holds back. Not really being into resolutions, but still wanting to participate in the spirit of the season, the TriWives chose to opt for the “one word resolution” as our friend, Lindsay Cotter, had suggested and we loved the idea. You have just read what word I chose. But walking my dogs the other morning, I…
