As @ellenlikesbikes has taught us: we wear red ruffle-y dresses to holiday parties even though we may feel like we are hulking out of them. Because we actually aren’t: we look dang good and have the best time with our fellow goobers (see pic 2) and are still able to enjoy being our best selves (pics 3 & 4 #snacclyfe) #bathroomselfieforthewin #besties #workparty #tistheseasonThese three amigos helped me return to road cycling today after a break of I don’t know how long. Hills are hard, biking is humbling, rides with friends are fun! #youmeetthenicestpeopleonabike #livforward #steedgreenmachine #westcoastbestcoast #winterridingComing home with a full heart, a rejuvenated soul, a bunch of new memories and another handful of friends from around the world. #youbetterbelizeitWhen it started raining in September I booked a flight somewhere sunny. The weather improved but life didn’t. I’ve trained three temps and covered unforeseen absences at work, our family cat had to be put down, a minor accident wrote off my car, and someone stole my bike. I’ll check in when I’m good and ready to face the world again. ✌🏻🚨 🚨 STOLEN BIKE ALERT 🚨 🚨 2017 Liv Brava SLR Size S From 11th and Pine between Friday night and Sunday morning. White Bontrager saddle. Please share and repost!!!Yesterday was my first swim meet in a year. It didn’t go according to plan, but luckily, my plan is pretty flexible these days! Super consistent splits on my two distance events means my pacing is really good, a two second PB on my favourite event means all the biking paid off, and 8m’ish underwater in backstroke means that noseclips work like a charm! 😆 We can discuss the dive where my goggles filled with water over a beer 😉 So happy and thankful to spend the day with my swim family 🥰 🙏🏻 📷 @bananna_marz for capturing this moment before the 800 at the end of a long day #swimmeet #mastersswimmer #mastersswimming #swim #swimclub #swimfamily #longcourse #tri #triathlon #tritraining #triathlontraining #ironman #ironmanhereicome #consistency #training #allfortheswimArchives

Cape Agulhas and Hermanus
We unfortunately didn’t get to see too much of Mossel Bay. A quick drive to see the lighthouse and then a stop at the post office were all we had time for before the 4 hour drive to the Southernmost tip … Continue reading

Ohhhh, J-Bay, how you were good to us! Good food, good drink, good shopping, good men to look at . . . But I digress. We left Graaf-Reinet on a sunny Friday morning, and arrived in Jeffrey’s Bay on an overcast … Continue reading

Cintsa and Graaff-Reinet
We left Umkomaas on November 1st and drove all day. It was long, boring, and not even very scenic. See my previous post about driving through Wyoming, you’ll get the idea, except this drive was longer. It paid off though, … Continue reading
