I know it is been a WHILE since I have posted on my blog. I had some issues with the blog and my old computer, but no worries…all is in good order. I just added some new posts from tri season 2010. I had been posting on Facebook when my blog went down. I am not officially caught up seeing I have nothing post Kona 2010. I have to admit my 2011 season was my break season… it went a little something like this:

Going into 2011 I wanted to have an easier season as I was a bit burned out from the ironman training and full time job. I decided to focus on half IMs and the Boston Marathon. I had an early start to the season racing in Puerto Rico 70.3… great race with a brutal run. I made it to the podium with a 2nd place AG finish and a Vegas slot. A few weeks later I ran the Boston Marathon. I always find Boston to be fun until I hit mile 21 It was a decent day. I also had Mooseman 70.3, Providence 70.3, AG Nationals, a FIRM olympic, and Vegas on the docket. It was a packed schedule! Needless to say, I did not race again after Boston Marathon. I decided to take a new job and move out west to Newport Beach, CA. I must say, I am so glad I took a break. I so needed it!!

I am officially a CA resident since July 28th…so crazy! I do miss Boston, but SoCal is the place to be for training and nice weather year round. I am so ready to start training for 2012. In another week I will start training for Ironman Texas and Oceanside. I am super excited to get back at it and train/race with QT2 Systems. I am working with Coach Jesse again, which I am super psyched about

I definitely have my work cut out for me, but I am ready to do it up! Stay tuned for my pre-season training blogs and some funny road race stories.
