My Husband Is an Ironman Triathlete

Two weekends ago Ryan participated in his 3rd full Ironman distance triathlon. Last year he did his first triathlon, then he raced in Texas in April and now this one. It takes a lot of time, energy and sacrifices to train for and complete a full Ironman. Sometimes I think we are crazy for the […]

Resources to get you to the Finish Line

Getting to the finish line has more to do with just the physical training before the race. Do you have these resources to make it to the finish line?

My husband, Ryan, and I met at a race. He proposed at the World Championships for Duathlon and we had a running themed wedding. Needless to say racing is a big part of us! A few weeks ago Ryan participated in his second full ironman distance triathlon. That is 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike […]

What it Takes to be an Ironman

The last post was about Ryan finishing his first full Ironman event! So today I thought I would tell you what it takes to be an Ironman. As far as the couple or family dynamic. Not only does this kind of training take dedication from the athlete but also from their wife and/or family. I […]

My Husband is an Ironman!

On Saturday Ryan completed his first full Ironman distance. He now is considered an Ironman! He has done many half Ironman distances but this was his first full! For those of you that don’t know this endurance event consists of: 2.4 mile swim 112 mile bike 26.2 mile bike For a grand total of 140.6 […]

When His Dream, Becomes Our Dream

Four days into knowing Ryan we were sitting there talking about our future plans and dreams. Ryan’s dream was to become a professional triathlete and inspirational speaker, along with having a wife that would fully support that dream and be the primary care taker of their many children. I shared that my dream was to […]

I DID WHAT?!?

Ryan is such a sweetheart! When we are talking to others, that may or may not know us that well, about our athletic adventures Ryan often brings this up. He says, “Considering experience, age and gender my wife may be a better athlete than me.” I always tend to laugh in my head because Ryan […]

Our Weekend

On Friday I posted about our weekends this time of the year. Like I mentioned we were headed to Kansas for me to race in a 6.5 mile trail run. Three years ago I worked a summer literacy camp. One of my coworkers there and I started running together and planned to do this race […]

Weekend! What That Means for Us.

It is Fall and it is race time! Many weekends September through November consist of races for us. Driving, early mornings, packing gear, and sandwiches on the road for dinner. Last weekend we had our long training day on Saturday and was off for a race on Sunday. Lucky for us we are use to getting up […]

OKC Memorial Marathon- We Like to Run!

Last year Ryan planted a seed. He started talking about me running a marathon. Kind of ironic really since he doesn’t run marathons right now. However, I ended up training for the OKC Memorial Marathon 2011 for my first marathon. I wanted to go under 4 hours and I accomplished a 3:58. This year I […]

The First Race as His Wife

Yesterday was the first race of Ryan’s that I attended as his wife! (He placed 2nd overall- woot woot!) It felt a little different although I can’t really explain it. I guess some people look at “girlfriend” as short term, but “wife” is looked at more long term. So when I was introduced as Ryan’s […]
