I’m sitting here watching the final stage of the Tour de France wondering to myself why it’s not on a network tv channel. It’s been on NBC Sports this year, which is great…but still. More people need to watch this amazing event. I know the Tour took a lot of heat for all the doping…
Scene: My house, Friday night. I’m in my penguin pajamas around 6:30pm as I’m exhausted and ready for bed. However, this is the first weekend in a LONG time where we have ZERO PLANS. My husband comes in from outside and says, the Duncans are here. That’s my sister’s family. So I go outside, in…
March 2013: 259.50 miles on the bike – 135,085 pounds lifted Not too much to say about this month. Overall, I’m happy with my pace and commitment. I’ve been able to bike outside more since the weather has been nicer. I was so sick at the beginning of March that it didn’t get off to…
