Day 2: After a restless night and a joke of a continental breakfast, we headed out for day two of the RSVP. My legs were tight after the miles the day before and I was slow for what felt like the entire day. The first rest stop was only 15 miles in but I was … More RSVP (Ride From Seattle to Vancouver and Party) Day 2
I’m a runner, not a biker. However, earlier this year for reasons I could not recall recently, I had decided I wanted to do something to challenge myself – that I could accomplish. After failing class after class in school I was ready to prove to myself that I could accomplish something – ANYTHING. That … More RSVP (Ride from Seattle to Vancouver and Party) Day 1

Every Friday I go to class and then directly to work. I try my damndest to get to work as quickly as possible. Sometimes luck is on my side and other times not. I was on my way this morning making decent time when I got behind a Pontiac that was driving a bit too … More The Unseen Battle

So I finally accomplished another thing on my list of New Year’s Resolutions – run a half marathon! Yesterday I ran in the Seattle Rock n’ Roll Half Marathon. This whole time I thought my next blog entry would be about the things I wish I had known, or the things I had done better … More Thoughts While Doing The Rock n’ Roll Seattle Half Marathon
Last year Matt did the Tulip Pedal, a bike ride up in La Conner, WA where they have the annual Skagit Tulip Festival every year.
