Cherry Creek Sneak 2012

This race went very well. it feels so good to be finally recovered from my injury. I loved this course 100. The course felt very similar to Rock n Roll Denver but without all the expense. There were bands on the course & bounce houses for my kids to jump in at the end. It was perfect weather, too. I had a great time! The only bummer was that my shoe came untied at around the mile 3 mark & it was very hard to stop to tie it since there were so many people. But, it all worked out in the end.

Location: Denver, CO, USA

Isle of Palms, Charleston, SC March 17-23, 2025

3/17/25 We arrived in Charleston, South Carolina, late in the evening on St. Patrick's Day. It was too dark to see much of the resort or beach, but that didn’t stop Camilla and me from exploring. Wandering along the shoreline, we were surprised by how many seashells we discovered in the moonlit sand. The rhythmic sound of the waves and the crisp night air made for a peaceful introduction to our stay. As we continued our impromptu tour, we stumbled upon the resort’s fitness center, a sparkling pool, and a rooftop bar offering glimpses of the ocean under the starry sky. Even in the dim light, we could tell this was one of the nicest resorts we had ever visited. Wild Dunes Resort is a premier oceanfront destination located on the northern tip of Isle of Palms, South Carolina. This expansive 1,600-acre retreat offers guests a blend of luxury accommodations, diverse recreational activities, and easy access to the pristine beaches of the Atlantic Ocean.  Wild Dunes Resort was alrea...

Camping at Lathrop State Park: Beauty, Chaos, and Unexpected Moments Tucked at the base of the stunning Spanish Peaks and just three miles west of the nearly abandoned town of Walsenburg lies  Lathrop State Park , Colorado’s very first state park, established in 1962. Don’t let Walsenburg’s boarded-up buildings fool you—the park itself is a hidden gem. With two serene lakes (Martin Lake and Horseshoe Lake) and 1,600 acres of space, it’s the kind of place that surprises you in the best way. I managed to snag a reservation at one of the park’s 103 campsites five months in advance, and it paid off. Our site was super private, giving us plenty of room to spread out. We brought three tents, but thanks to Arlo (our enthusiastic and overly curious dog), the biggest one now has two holes. A metal crate is definitely coming with us next time. Day One: Barking in the Bathroom The first night, I went for a solo walk with Arlo under a sky so dark I could only see by headlamp. Of course, I had ...

6/1/25 Escape from Alcatraz Triathlon

Rediscovering San Francisco: A Journey After Two Decades It’s hard to believe it’s been 11 years since I last set foot in California and nearly 20 years since I’ve been to San Francisco. Seeing this city now, at this stage in my life, is a completely different experience than it was two decades ago. Back then, I thought of San Francisco as simply cold, windy, and crowded, with cool clubs lighting up the nights. Today, I find myself appreciating so much more — the stunning architecture, the vibrant wildlife, the incredible diversity of people, the amazing food choices, and the breathtaking landscapes that surround the city. After landing, Marion kindly picked us up from the airport, and we headed straight for lunch at Pacific Catch. Known as a West Coast Fish House, Pacific Catch impressed me with its commitment to sustainably sourced seafood and Pacific Rim–inspired dishes — fresh, flavorful, and perfectly satisfying. Thursday night took a lively turn at Jaxson, where we dove into some...
