Stairs and spring

Last weekend was the Big Climb at the Colombia Center. 1311 stairs in record time for our training buddies. Congratulations to Eileen, Joan, John, Merilyn and Wilma!

Last week still brought some snow flurries, but spring and warmer temps (50 degrees) are finally upon us. Training is going well for everyone. The spring full and 1/2 marathoners are upping miles. The biking and 1/2 ironman folks are getting in their base miles.

Brrrr....

Spring into action

Now that we have more light in the evenings, time to spring into action and get in those workouts. The new Seattle Rock N Roll training group started with several motivated runners and walkers! Not too late to join in if you haven't already.

The Saturday bike and 1/2 IM training had it's first ride of the season last weekend. Always a good sign, we started with a little drizzle before the skies cleared and stayed gray, hmm is that possible to have gray clear skies?
