I updated the title photo again. Because I couldn't figure out how to change the font colour of the title, I chose a photo that has a darker background. This photo was also taken on Hornby Island at our friend's wedding last year.
Lost Lake Snowshoe March 2009 031 Originally uploaded by erinlesleylee Yesterday was a beautiful day in Whistler. The weather was cool, clear and sunny. While my family headed up the mountain for skiing and snowboarding, I headed over to Lost Lake for a wonderful day of snowshoeing. I ended up doing a few loops on the red and orange level trails. Check out my route below. http://connect.garmin.com/activity/2842786 Happy training!
IMG00092.jpg Originally uploaded by erinlesleylee Not sure if a photo is worth 1000 words but I think this photo sums up my cold, wet and uncomfortable ride. Physically I felt great and I didn't let it get me down mentally until the last few kms. I was happy to be done. Still waiting for the feeling to come back in my fingers and toes. Check out the photo of my bike also. Note: no fenders. This made for an extra special level of wetness on my butt. Good times! Happy Training!
Beach where the Vancouver Tri starts After a few e-mail with my coach yesterday, I will now be adding a second 1/2 IM to my race list for 2009. In addition to the Victoria 1/2 IM on June 21 , I will also be doing the Vancouver 1/2 IM on July 12 . Two 1/2 IMs in three weeks...maybe the best way to train is to race. I had also planned a training trip to Penticton on the August 1st long weekend to ride the Ironman Canada course. My coach suggested coming up two weeks before IMC instead to ride the course. Riding the full course two weeks before the race seems a little unorthodox but what do I know?
Family Run March 2009 005 Originally uploaded by erinlesleylee Last night I had the pleasure of running with my husband. This does not happen very often so it was quite a treat. My son was running on the track with his track and field club at the same time. Good times!
