Lizzy's 2011

I have a tendency to forget how awesome a year I’ve had by the time December comes around. I’ve always been one to shoot for the stars with my goals, which often means I fall a little short. I also live with Luke, who, as you may have been reading, has been doing a lot [...]

Hello, 2011!

2010 has been an interesting year. It hasn’t been at all what I expected (especially climbing-wise, particularly when compared with 2009), but there have still been many great experiences and anyways, I think having “off” years makes me appreciate the “on” years that much more. Rather than rehash what adventures have or have not gone [...]

Following the Psych

If I’ve learned anything from my 8+ year affair with climbing, it is that I am not always perma-psyched on climbing, especially now that I have the freedom to climb practically every weekend if I really want to (when a climbing weekend was a rare treat, back in high school, it was much easier to [...]

Luna Bar Triathlon 2010

I have been feeling recently that words and stills couldn’t quite adequately describe the experience of doing a triathlon, so for the Luna Bar Triathlon this past weekend, I decided to make a video! This was my longest triathlon yet: 0.5mi swim, 20mi cycle, 4mi run. I finished in 2:03:51, for 4th place in my [...]

My Second Triathlon!

You may remember that it was not that long ago when I blogged about my first triathlon, the Silicon Valley Sprint Triathlon on June 12th. Well, it was so awesome that I decided to do some more! I knew right away that I wanted to return to the Luna Bar Women’s Triathlon Festival, where I [...]

My First Triathlon!

Back in August 2009 I did something new. It was the Luna Bar Duathlon, part of the Luna Bar Women’s Triathlon Festival. A duathlon is like a triathlon (swim, bike, run), except you run the first leg (run, bike, run). I hadn’t wanted to do the triathlon because I didn’t have consistent access to a [...]

Luna Bar All Women's Triathlon Festival 2009

This last Sunday I participated in the Luna Bar Duathlon at the Luna Bar All Women’s Duathlon at Rancho Seco Park, which is in rolling hills south of Sacramento near some vineyards and a nuclear power plant (I’d never been this close to one!!). I had decided to do this event because it was going [...]
