Barre. A combination of strength (light and heavy weights) core and balance! Also good b***y work ! Mix it in with your heavy lifting and HIIT days and 2-3x a week of Reformer work ! Certified in Barre and Pilates and I live to teach ! Reach out for some group / bachelorette party trainings or personal training !

Beautiful day for a race at Boulder Reservoir ! I did not want to do this race - I have not been training (last weekend was the first weekend I swam in open water and the first time I got the new bike out for some rides) and I was just nervous about the swim (which was beautiful btw)! But I stayed in Boulder last night and looked through posts that inspire me, and saw old photos of my dad, and I thought - I can do this and one day I will not be able to! So in honour of my dads bday (tomorrow!) I thought just freakin show up and have fun ! And he was out there with me in the swim !

It was so fun to see so many newbies out there ! I will have to check the course next time -lol - not aware that the bike was 17 miles vs 12 - but I love that ride either way!

I also had high hopes of hitting the podium, but got 6th, so I’ll take that! I love my age groupers -55-60 - but they are some tough cookies!!!! Song / mantra of the day was Let’s Go !!!!

First tri if the summer done and dusted and on to more ….. ;)))

And thank you for my lovely flowers as a way to celebrate;)

Self doubt. Insecurities. We all have them. The difference is - how do you handle those feelings!? I worked 12 hours on my feet yesterday, and was meeting a group of cyclists in Littleton so hit the road at 7am. Part of me was trying to make excuses in fear of not being able to keep up in the group - tired, legs sore, haven’t ridden this bike yet, blah blah blah - the things we tell ourselves!!
And the other half of me said LFG and get this part out of the way. Who cares if I can’t keep up - I am doing it!
And you know what !? I did pretty good and feel ready to get back in the game 💪💪
NEVER let your mind play tricks on you. You CAN do hard things ❤️💪

PS the plus of driving to Denver is I get to enjoy Nektar and Trader Joe’s !
