You've been training for months for your first triathlon or you might be a seasoned triathlete who always seems to bonk on the run.  You've done the workouts, you feel so confident going into your race knowing you're ready for anything that comes your way.  You get to the race, you have a great swim and bike but when it's all said and done, you fall apart on the run.

If you're interested in introducing your children to the world of triathlons this summer or you just need a place for them to hang out for a week while on summer break, then consider sending them to my Youth Triathlon Camp. July 19-23 we will have 24 kids ages 4-13 who will learn all the necessary skills they need to compete in the YMCA Youth Triathlon or the North Park Triathlon. I still have some slots available.

Pam Fredericks stopped me at Youth Run Club last Tuesday to tell me about a pain she was having on the top of her foot.  Directly above where her cleet clips into her pedals on her new bike.  Since she is new to cycling, we thought she may have been pedaling wrong, pushing down too much or twisting her foot in a way that extra pressure was being applied.  Pam is just coming off a serious hip injury and is back to running.  We certainly didn't need another injury.

Well, shortly after getting pregnant, I knew a baby jogger was the one thing I had to get.  After all, I had just started back to running after being diagnosed with Lupus and I wasn't going to stop being active just because I had a baby.  I told my family that was the main gift I wanted and my sister bought me the Original Baby Jogger.  I was thrilled and I couldn't wait to put it to use.
