Recently the Running Fit team headed up to Traverse City for a record attendance snowshoe race.  Once again, the Bigfoot (runsnow.com) was a crowd pleaser!

I had a blast trompin’ through the snow. Beautiful trails, good company and great post race chili!  Check out this great article from the Grand Traverse Insider Chasing Bigfoot about one group that also shared this awesome experience out in the woods!

Last week I broke away from my regular routine of riding my bike trainer in front of my TV, pumping my legs to my inspirational collection of Golden Girl’s DVD’s. Yeah, I know, talk about quality training!

Instead, I pumped 'em at the new bike training night at Running Fit headquarters.

Mandy's the sidekick of Running Fit's Marketing/Events department.

She loves to get out of the water fast to watch everyone pass her on the bike!  Has completed multiple sprint, Olympic and 70.3 distance tri's. Member of the unofficial group "an Ironman is on my bucket list."

Favorite part of triathlons is the free cross training during training...gotta' love that recovery swim!

It’s official! The days are getting longer and you can flip the countdown to spring switch ON!

What to do in the to hurry it up? While you might not have a triathlon on your immediate schedule don’t rule out putting one on your radar! Having something to train for will give you a reason to get out one these blustery beautiful winter days J
