20-60-40 Triathlon

I'm a family guy who is addicted to swim/bike/run and anything to do with getting out into the backcountry wilderness areas. This blog focuses on the swim, bike, run and other various aspects of my attempts to finish in the top ten percent of my age group in whatever race I do. It used to be all about finishing the legs of an Olympic Distance triathlon: swim in 20 minutes, bike in 60 minutes, and run in 40 minutes. Now, it's more about training well and finishing well.

Incredible Weather for XC Skiing

Spent some time cross country skiing instead of biking and running today….well worth the effort! We went no-kidding “cross country” for the first half, getting off the trail and heading up a ridgeline as if we were backcountry skiing. Our goal was to hook into our favorite trail for a quick trip home. Total of 2.5 hours skiing. INCREDIBLE WEATHER! Warm but not too warm to make the snow stick. Sunny and no wind! Living the dream!
