The Few Extra Pounds I Got For Christmas!

In spite of the miles and miles we train on our bikes; and the centuries and double centuries we tackle every year - many of us struggle with the five, or ten, or more, extra pounds that seem to hang on despite all efforts, or slowly accumulate over the years because we're not paying attention. Two pounds here, two pounds there... and all of a sudden we can't fit into our skinny jeans anymore. If you're in the same boat as I am, then you might be entertained by my other blog, Fighting the Fluff - which is my honest and sometimes silly rant about my often lack of self control when it comes to food, and my ever present battle with the bulge. It might be a small bulge, but it's a huge challenge nonetheless...

Join me in the battle!

Snowshoeing Fun!

New Year's Day: Zion National Park! Awesome! What a way to start the year!








As if yesterday wasn't exhausting enough (for those of you who've never hiked in snowshoes, it feels like twice the work as regular hiking), we trekked out to Pine Valley, UT (about an hour from our house) to enjoy the snow and make some new friends!
