Introduction Likes a challenge and maybe goes a little overboard sometimes... I was curious about the Ironman distances and decided to see what it was all about. My first triathlon was a full course Ironman and I'm not curious about those distances any more. The learning curves were steep and the training days were long. I ended up doing a second IM just to make sure I had gotten it out of my system. With all that training I got into the best shape of my life! Pearl Izumi hired me as a fit model to give feedback on upcoming cycling gear. PI then selected me to be a member of their Champions Cycling Team to spread the love of cycling wherever my wheels took me. Oh yeah, the biking... 4X Ride The Rockies, a Triple Bypass, 2X CU Buffalo Bicycle Classic Epic, 2X Elephant Rock, and fun rides like touring Italy as well. Winters are for skiing:) I've had a Colorado address for 95% of my life including a decade of career years spent in The South. When I had babies, I came home and raised my 2, (now college graduate), kids in Boulder. My husband is my best friend, best training buddy, and number one cheerleader. I lovingly refer to him as my Partner In Crime:)
Interests Seeing what's around the bend.
Favorite Movies Classic: Jeremiah Johnson for the silence, the mountains, the snow, the wild Current: Nocturnal Animals for the artistry, and storytelling
Favorite Music Mix it up, I like it all. Lately I've been hooked on a Pandora station called 'Hipster Cocktail Party Radio'
Favorite Books Endurance, The Worst Journey In The World, 1493, Over The Edge Of The World, Kite Runner, Angle of Repose, The English Patient, Call of the Wild, anything by Wallace Stegner or Cormac Mc Carthy
