I have a friend that teaches kid's snowboarding at Sunburst. They have a great program. Hope your son has fun. Come on - give snowboarding a chance for you too. I took it up about 4 seasons ago...

I spent a weekend at the Cleveland Ray's last spring and it's a blast. Yes, I returned with bruises, bumps, and scrapes but I also came away with much more confidence. I could definitely notice the...

I'm sure that the plan I used for my marathon would have been considered "half-assed" by some and still it worked fine for me.

I usually only ran 3 times per week. An easy run on Tues., a...

I survived Sunday's marathon and actually enjoyed it quite a bit.

The weather was perfect - mid 40s and mostly sunny. It was an out and back route and there was some wind on the way back but...

5 mile tempo run last night on the multi-use trail.

I brought out my new headlamp and then went and forgot it on the kitchen table. I could have really used it because it got quite dark out...

I just bought a Petzl. I haven't run in it yet but it was comfortable when I tried it out around the house .... and it was on clearance at REI - so even better.

Great job on the weekend's races ladies. I love to read race reports - especially from 1st timers. We all need that extra inspiration to keep us motivated.

The earliest we can ever hope to hit the slopes here in WI is around Thanksgiving ... and that would be on very limited snow (with man-made help). Even so my season pass is purchased and ready to go...

You certainly have an ambitious year planned Susan. I can definitely see why having a coach would be a great thing for you.

I have also used the Runner's World program for my half-marathon, and...

Welcome kimikaw from a fellow Milwaukeean .... and also going on 50 year old.

Kacie - It must feel great for you to be able to feel almost back to pre-injury form. I don't know how you manage to find the time to get everything in. You must be super organized and totally...

Did my first 20 mile run on Sat. afternoon as part of my marathon training program. The last few miles were the only tough ones. My legs were definitely tightening up and I was very happy to be...

We've been in our house for 22 years so we've seen some neighbors come and go over all that time.

Our neighbors 2 doors down have been there over 25 years and our children pretty much grew up...

7 - that I can remember .... although the total kept increasing while I was reading all the other posts and more came to mind.

Perhaps we'll have to revisit this thread next year at this time...

Here's another link for other Wisconsin Rails to Trails.

Be sure to post when you get in this area and maybe one of us WI TEers can meet up with you...

Great job.

Before the event you were probably full of nervous "why in the world did I agree to do this" excitement.

Crossing that finish line puts your mind right into that "what's the next...

That sounds like a great way to get you both out there doing something. You should make the perfect duathlon partners. Have fun !!!

P.S. Love the avatar. I have that picture hanging in our...

Love them.

It's one of my favorite places to order from. Great prices and quick shipping.

Hey !!! I have that exact same bike hanging up in my garage. It had been my daughter's first "real" road bike years ago.

I brought it out last fall and cleaned and lubed her up. It still worked...

Just wondering if there are any other TE'ers doing the Trek 100 this weekend in Waterloo, WI?

The weather forecast doesn't sound very promising but I'm sure it will still be a fun ride.

Susan - I really love that scavenger hunt idea. That would make any run much more enjoyable. I have never heard of anything like that around here. Maybe I'll have to look into getting something...

I have a single speed / fixed gear that I use mainly for my commuter bike. It has the option of being a fixed gear, or flipping it over to a free wheel. I use it with the free wheel.

I love...

Great job Yellow - and how cool that you feel so well afterwards.

Went for a 6 1/2 mile rather hilly run on Sunday. Then 3 1/2 miles last night.

Right now I've been concentrating more on my...

Thanks for a wonderful SS package Hoosier Giant. I loved all the yummy goodies. Makes me want to get out and ride so I have an excuse to eat them.

The lip balms went right into my bike bag...

Oh Dar, that really stinks. I know how happy you were to be able to work out of your home. Selling your house and moving to a new city was a huge decision for you. At least now you're in a bigger...
