Do you ever have one of those days or should I say weeks as a triwife? Well, I did, and I’m here to share… I do love being a triwife, but there are many times I get frustrated and the recent past has been one of those times. Plus, to make matters worse, it was over one of my favorite things – FOOD! See,…

We picked a few of our favorite triathlete holiday gifts this year and wanted to share them with you guys. We have raced Rev3 (or our triathletes have), tasted wines from OSC Wines (and definitely approve), and our triathletes have used Every Man Jack products for a few years now. So, all are tried, tested, and make us happy…. FAVORITE TRIATHLETE HOLIDAY GIFTS REV3 TRIATHLONS…

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. Some general thoughts….You know your triathlete, so…

It was bound to happen at some point. After doing close to 20 full Ironman races, the odds are stacking against you. They say pretty much every triathlete encounters this during their “career”, including most pros. It’s just part of the sport. To what am I referring? Ugh…The DNF…. Well, it happened to my trihubby at Ironman Arizona. He had a really good swim, was…

It has officially been six months since my husband, David, was hit by a drunk driver while out on a training ride on his bike (I still tear up when I say or write that). This past week was Ironman Arizona which was to be his “A” race of 2014. You can only imagine the emotion in our house race day, when he was tracking…

Well, we thought it was a great plan when we built our house… We recently moved to Omaha and live downtown in the wonderful Old Market. We took several apartments in a boutique building and combined them into our home on a wonderful southeast corner that gets the morning and day sun. It is beautiful and we love it! It was about a year ago…

One of my friends joined our ranks this summer and is an official TRIWIFE. (I’m so proud). Actually, I’m so proud of both of them. We’re talking a late bloomer here people…I asked Holly to share her experience and tell us what it’s like to be a newbie and how we can help. Enjoy her story and be sure to let her know what tidbits…

I actually lived in Phoenix for quite a few years, so enjoy going back to see how the area has changed, not to mention catching up with old friends. We did our Food, Fun, and Spectating pieces last year, so I’m just giving you some updates and a few new things to do and see….

Whether your triathlete’s last race of the season was Kona, a local race, or is coming up at Rev3 Florida, it all brings us to the same place – off-season. No matter who you talk to…pros, coaches, your family doctor, or other triathletes, they will all say taking time off is a necessity. Not only for the triathlete, but for the family, who has also…

Update: This post is current as of 10/31/17. We can’t believe we actually won’t be at Ironman Florida this year. We’ve been there for quite a few years in the past. Since, we do know the territory and the race, we still wanted to give you some updates to have at your disposal. Remember, the race is on Saturday and not Sunday – trust us,…

I absolutely loved doing the first Why Trisupporters Rock pictorial and I think you guys enjoyed it, too. I’ve come to realize that this spectating the spectators gig has made me appreciate you all even more. I was recently at a local triathlon, the Westchester Tri, and found more awesome pictures of why trisupporters rock…Being in Kona this week and thinking about what all the…

When I went with Carl to the Ironman 70.3 WC in Mont Tremblant, I was going to work this time – for the first time. I have always just gone to have a vacation and of course, to be his trisupporter. In the beginning, I spent many races by myself, but once he got into the sport, we met many friends and so now, I’m…
