When I was in High school, someone once said to me “only those who dare to lose, Win.” This really struck a chord with me and has since then affected many of my actions in life. I remember applying to colleges. What a scary time. This was my future, this would determine all the [...]

Bicycling Story #2

I’ll never forget as a 5 year old kid, my favorite thing. My yellow, banana seat bike with the streamers hanging off the handlebars. I felt like a real studette riding that thing around, especially after I was able to ride without my training wheels. That was my first bike and my first taste of [...]

Pulling Yourself out of a Rut

Things are going great! You feel strong, your training is right on and you, you rock!! Everything feels good. You’re swimming PR’s in the pool, cycling like a crazed yellow jersey laden phenom, and running like the wind, (or at least it feels that way!). Life is good. You say your thanks and make sure [...]

Recipe for Success

We all know that our lives are one big, and hopefully long, journey. All the things that we devote our time and passion to, become vehicles through which we find ourselves along this journey.

It’s not the excitement of swim practice that gets me up, but the smell of my hazelnut coffee brewing up in the kitchen. Before jumping out [...]

The Colt

There once was a car called “the colt”. This 1980 Mitsubishi Colt became my true companion the winter of 1998-1999 when I was living in Sydney, Australia. I had come to Australia to train for 4 months. Eager to get around this wonderful city and to explore all the great spots for training, I knew [...]

Personal Journey

I do triathlon because I love it. I have a passion for the sport burning inside of me. A love for the outdoors, a love for feeling fit, a love for pushing my limits, challenging myself to reach higher levels of speed, strength and endurance. When It comes to racing , there is nothing like [...]

Getting Back Up

During my senior year at Brown University I had a roommate, Perry, who was working on a thesis to complete a sociology degree. From a muggy Rhode Island Summer into a hot pre-graduation spring, she spent each and every evening coupled with a stoneware mug full of Peaberry’s strongest dark and the keyboard of her [...]
