Sharon, MA Triathlon: Race Review

August 20, 2012

Last Sunday I competed in the Sharon Sprint Triathlon. This was my first small-town triathlon and I loved it. Don’t get me wrong, the NYC tri is amazing, but it was a nice change of pace to be competing with 500 athletes (as opposed to 5,000) in & around a pretty lake in the ‘burbs of Boston. Here’s the quick…

Back from Vacation

Overall, the course is very different than the NYC Tri. It’s a lot flatter, no big hills…

Sunday Frittata

I took everything and tossed it with some eggs, creating a delicious and healthy frittata, big enough to last at least 3 meals.
