Pirate Girl's Triathlon Adventures: My summit of the Agua Caliente Hill
http://azpirategirl.blogspot.com/2011/12/my-summit-of-agua-caliente-hill.html
Pirate Girl's Triathlon Adventures. Swashbuckling fun in swim, bike, and run. Monday, December 19, 2011. My summit of the Agua Caliente Hill. The trail alone is 9 miles. I could drive the 2 miles to the trailhead, or leave from my front door to make it 13 miles and a half marathon. Front door it is! All photos can be clicked on to enlarge). About a mile into the run and a view of the mountains ahead I have yet to climb. Self shot, proof that I'm out there running. Agua Caliente hill is known as one of Tu...

Pirate Girl's Triathlon Adventures: Who hates the treadmill more?
http://azpirategirl.blogspot.com/2012/02/who-hates-treadmill-more.html
Pirate Girl's Triathlon Adventures. Swashbuckling fun in swim, bike, and run. Wednesday, February 29, 2012. Who hates the treadmill more? Now that I invited The Dark Warrior to write and share his side of our running partnership on my blog, I can't shut the guy up. He has sent me 3 journal entries, which now means I'm behind and must catch up. Our running relationship has transferred to this blog, and I can't be the one behind. Especially because it's my blog! I on the other hand must rely on the evils o...

The Three Week Taper. What Was My Stomach Thinking?

Pirate Girl's Triathlon Adventures. Swashbuckling fun in swim, bike, and run. Friday, March 18, 2011. I am the cruise director. As part of corporate training, we are given the True Colors. There was a glimmer of hope. I started looking at sites like RunningInTheUSA.com. And there is a Cherry Blossom 10 mile run. I hit the credit union an hour later and had the check in the mail to her that afternoon. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Building my own Factory Five Racing Mk4 Roadster. View my complete profile.

Pirate Girl's Triathlon Adventures: November 2010
http://azpirategirl.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Pirate Girl's Triathlon Adventures. Swashbuckling fun in swim, bike, and run. Saturday, November 27, 2010. My December Runathon Experiment. Each year the Tucson Tri Girls hold the December Runathon. For each day in December, participants are to run a minimum of 2 miles. Now 2 miles sounds like nothing, but when you're doing it everday in addition to your other runs and bike rides, it can become difficult to schedule sometimes. I did this challenge back in 2008. 2010 December Runathon Goals:. Pre-Runathon...

Pirate Girl's Triathlon Adventures: Choose your running partners wisely
http://azpirategirl.blogspot.com/2011/12/choose-your-running-partners-wisely.html
Pirate Girl's Triathlon Adventures. Swashbuckling fun in swim, bike, and run. Sunday, December 25, 2011. Choose your running partners wisely. We hit the steep part, and after awhile it got quiet behind me. Too quiet. I turned around. "Who's hiking back there? The only answer is that he's not right in the head, like all of my running partners. No sane people can really run with me. The sane ones are out on the Rillito River path where it's safe, and not climbing a mountain. I may need to divorce The Bould...

Pirate Girl's Triathlon Adventures. Swashbuckling fun in swim, bike, and run. Saturday, December 24, 2011. It's On: The Age vs. Beauty Grudge Match. The DW is also a writer, and I finally got up the courage to ask if I could share his writing on my blog as the counterpoint to my writing about training. He agreed, so I will share with you the first few entries of his to get caught up (his writing will be in blue). Fools Run In (with apologies to Mercer/Bloom). Next weekend, it's the desert by Hoover Dam.

Pirate Girl's Triathlon Adventures: January 2012
http://azpirategirl.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Pirate Girl's Triathlon Adventures. Swashbuckling fun in swim, bike, and run. Sunday, January 1, 2012. Running from Sabino Canyon to Prison Camp. At 10:30 AM I started my run at the bottom of the road in Sabino Canyon. It was a good thing Zac was dropping me off because the parking lot was packed with snowbirds and holiday visitors. And since it was past 9 AM, the evil trams were running. Click photos to enlarge). I reached the last hill on the paved road of the canyon and was caught by the evil trams.
