Trainin' on a Prayer: Are We Out Of The Woods Yet?
http://trainingonaprayer.blogspot.com/2015/03/are-we-out-of-woods-yet.html
Trainin' on a Prayer. Monday, March 16, 2015. Are We Out Of The Woods Yet? Looking at it now. We were built to fall apart. Then fall back together. Both our sit bones were a wreck. That race we couldn't quite forget. To put on our fleecy pants,. Baby, like we stood a chance. Then my old lady strength has us flying, flying, flying. And I remember thinkin'. Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods? Are we in the clear yet? I admittedly h...

Trainin' on a Prayer: First Gnar
http://trainingonaprayer.blogspot.com/2015/03/first-gnar.html
Trainin' on a Prayer. Monday, March 30, 2015. Last week finally brought the long-awaited first gnar rides of the year. I took a PTO day on Wednesday to try and get my stress levels back under control, and in doing so, got very doggedly determined that I would mountain bike that day no matter what. As it turned out, we did get to ride and trails weren’t too bad…for the most part. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. On The Twitter Bandwagon. Beer, Bikes, and Snow.

Trainin' on a Prayer: Back in the Saddle(ish)
http://trainingonaprayer.blogspot.com/2015/04/the-last-couple-of-weeks-have-been-bit.html
Trainin' on a Prayer. Monday, April 20, 2015. Back in the Saddle(ish). The upshot of that worky-work blah blah blah paragraph is that I haven’t had much mental capacity for blogging lately, but it’s looking like I should have a few months where I get to rest my mental capacity a bit. Hopefully, I can use that excess capacity on bikes and wedding planning. I'm starting to get my rock skills back, and I had my first-ever clean run of Chicken Peter on Saturday.

Trainin' on a Prayer: Reluctantly About That Base
http://trainingonaprayer.blogspot.com/2015/06/to-go-north-you-must-journey-south-to.html
Trainin' on a Prayer. Monday, June 29, 2015. Reluctantly About That Base. To go north, you must journey south, to reach the west you must go east. To go forward you must go back, and to touch the light you must pass beneath the shadow.". Quaithe to Daenerys Targaryen in "A Clash of Kings". Reluctantly I made the decision that after returning from Illinois I would focus on shoring up my weaknesses instead of trying to squeeze a few seconds here and there out of my strengths. My weakness? Come With Me on a...

Trainin' on a Prayer: Illin' and the Mini Rando de Taco
http://trainingonaprayer.blogspot.com/2015/06/illin-and-mini-rando-de-taco.html
Trainin' on a Prayer. Wednesday, June 24, 2015. Illin' and the Mini Rando de Taco. Now we’re back home safely, and I’m trying to get back into my training rhythm as quickly as possible. We’ll have one more weekend away this summer when we go to New York to visit Frank’s friends (and hopefully buy my wedding dress! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I enjoy philosophizing on pop song lyrics and trying to find meaning in the daily struggles and triumphs of riding and racing bikes. View my complete profile.

Trainin' on a Prayer: An XC State of Mind
http://trainingonaprayer.blogspot.com/2015/06/an-xc-state-of-mind.html
Trainin' on a Prayer. Wednesday, June 10, 2015. An XC State of Mind. Maybe I’m making bikes harder than it is. –. Me, because Taylor Swift didn’t have anything useful to say on the matter.

This is a chronicle of my many phases as an amateur bike racer, the most recent of which is my attempt to befriend the rocks of Rothrock State Forest in Pennsylvania along with my husband, Frank.

Rolling down the winding trail to nowhere. Tuesday, November 11, 2014. I am putting this here so if anyone was actually interested they would not miss a post. I might be moving back to WordPress but not sure yet. Only if it is easier to post to the new team page from there. Thanks for putting up with the hassles. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Bentcrank: July 2013
http://bentcrank.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Rolling down the winding trail to nowhere. Monday, July 29, 2013. Capitol View - Blue Grass State Games. I want to congratulate Dean for winning the 40-49 Cat 2 race even after getting off course because of some tape that was missing. He was way up there on the first lap and should have dominated all of Cat 2. Way to fight back and still find the top of the podium, well so to speak since the races don't actually have podiums most of the time. Wednesday, July 24, 2013. Friday, July 12, 2013. My big disapp...

Bentcrank: March 2014
http://bentcrank.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Rolling down the winding trail to nowhere. Sunday, March 16, 2014. Thursday, March 6, 2014. Once again time has passed by way to quickly. I hope I can get better at keeping this updated more often. I have not been training like I should be or more probably like my competition has been doing. Oh well, it is too late to change that. I can only move forward and try to improve every week and hope to end up some place when I need to be there. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.
