Walla Walla Here We Come!
It's finally here - a chance to see how all the winter/spring training will look in a race.
After two open water swims - I feel ready as I'll ever be
Thank you to all who have joined me the last two Weds - I love swimming w/ the group!
For me my training has been much much more run /strength focused this year than last year(TnT Victoria training). It will be fun to see if it makes a difference.
I'm looking forward to seeing many of my training friends bright and early on Sunday morning, on the race course (and hanging out together afterwards)
Onionman - ready or not here we come!

Windermere Marathon
Lauren and I ran the Windermere Marathon in Spokane yesterday. Andrew rode his bike along the course, which is the Centennial Trail , so we got to see him a few times. We kept an eye out for MaryKay, who was running the half, but didn't see her. It was a beautiful, and mostly flat course, along the Spokane River. There were about 1000 people total, 617 people ran the half and 287 ran the full. The inaugural running of this marathon had super friendly volunteers and a lot of port-o-potties. There were a few glitches; the most glaring error was mis-numbered mile markers. Mile 17 happened twice and after that the numbers were only sometimes right. Having mile markers repeat mislabelled is a VERY confusing thing when you have been running for over three hours and can't think right. I am sure that will get worked out next year. I would highly recommend it! www.windermeremarathon.com
