Time for training again- Winter 2011

Brian in Boise ID for the Ironman 70.3

Brian and I have been spending most of the month (January 2011) getting ready for the 2011 Race Season!!  We both have big plans for the year.  Brian will be doing 4 half Ironman races and a handful of smaller triathlons.  I will be stepping it up this year and doing the Olympic distance at Donner in July and trying to beat last year's time at Irongirl.  Brian and I have convinced his dad to come to Lake Tahoe for all of our first marathons (except this will be Brian's first marathon not as part of an Ironman... overachiever!)  We are super excited to embark on the second season and we both feel really good about beating our times from last year.   Here are a few photos from our 2010 races.  We would love to train with you or race with you so don't hesitate to let us know!!!  Happy training, Melissa & Brian
