Red Sox Win World Series

It's a great year for Boston fans. The Red Sox have won the world series for the second time in 4 years. The New England Patriots are on a winning streak at 7-0 and Boston College is #2 in the nation. Hurray for Bean Town!

Any Given Sunday

Yesterdays game should've been a win but instead it was a really disappointing loss. Our offence was off and our defense, which is tough, was just not playing well. The worst part of the game was losing the man himself Matt Hasselbeck (our quarterback), I have a feeling he may be out for the season. Not sure what his injuries are but he is the glue that holds that team together.

Well with that all said I kept thinking that we were now out of Superbowl contention until I heard on the radio that we were in this exact position last year. We're not out yet...watch out for the Seahawks folks, we will fight back and fight hard.

Fantastic Website

I have found the best website for runners, bikers and even walkers. It allows runners to map and measure their favorite running routes and then save them to the largest searchable database of running routes in the country. It is done through USA Track and Field.

Anyone that considers themselves a runner will love it. Check it out today.

Hump Day

The middle of the week. It can be the greatest feeling in the world OR it can feel as if the week is just dragging along. This Wednesday is a good one. I've just returned from a run that felt really good and I'm about to cook my husband and I some cod. Although cod is some of the cheapest fish you can buy, it is probably one of my favorites. I suspect that it is because cod or salt fish as we know it in Jamaica is a part of our national dish and I ate it a lot growing up.

Monday Tim and I went for a 2500m swim. Tuesday was an off day because we decided to go watch the Everett Silvertips play in the playoffs. Thursday will probably be a run/bike day. I'll let you know what we do on Friday. Saturday I'm going for a 45-mile bike ride. Sunday, well Sunday may just be another rest day...we'll see.

First Game Of The Season

It was a beautiful day in Seattle with temperatures in the 70's. Tim and I finally went to a Mariners Game yesterday and even though they lost it was a perfect day for baseball. When we got home we headed out on a 20-mile bike ride, with a pit stop at the Dey's house.

Training has been going well. Last week I did a run that I was not happy with but having bad days are expected. Tim and I will be doing a sprint triathlon on June 3rd, he's doing it to support his lovely wife and I'm doing it as a practice run before the real thing.

If you have made a contribution to Team in Training, thank you and I look forward to swimming, riding and running this race because of your support. If you haven't made a contribution...do it now!

Hold Your Heads' Up High, Seahawk Fans


Great job to the Seattle Seahawks, they moved that ball and they played like NFC Champions. It was hard watching them lose yesterday but I just know the NFL playoffs and the world have not seen the last of the Seahawks. It's been a fun football year and I look forward to the start of the 2006/07 season in September. "Go Hawks!"

It's Superbowl Sunday!

It's a beautiful day in Seattle and after a windy day yesterday, today the sun is trying hard to show itself. It's game day and for many of us Seahawk fans we will be watching the game from home or at fun filled parties. Tim has decided that as a Seahawk fan since 1976 (their inception) a party will not do this year, he must have peace and quiet around him as this is a serious game and he needs to watch all plays and hear all commentary. All I can say is "Go Hawks!"
