No Rain for the Stairs

The rain stopped on the way to Volunteer Park, but the decision was already made. Tower stairs instead of Howe St. Of course we had to take a few photo opportunities along the way.

Whidbey 1/2 Marathon



Great time was had by all at the Whidbey 1/2 Marathon. It was a blustery day with the winds during the race between 20 and 24 mph. No rain and a little cool because of the winds, but the route was beautiful and it was fun to see all the eagles and seagulls playing in the wind!

Dry in between the drops




It's lighter out, the flowers are blooming, the temperatures are getting a tiny bit higher and biking has begun, as well as the run/walk group for the summer races. There is still plenty of rain, but last Saturday's bike ride had a break from the drops and we stayed dry. Here's a few memorable photos from Sandy.

Spring is in the air

March is here, the temps are warmer, the flowers are popping up all over and time will change on the weekend giving us more light in the evenings.

It is also the month when the Saturday long distance bike group begins. This year's theme is mountain passes and we will be building up to climb over 3 passes later in the summer. If you are interested in this group write me asap for more info as we start March 12th.

A new run/walk group starts on March 20th for 1/2 marathon and 10 km distances. There are a few races we are training for: the Mayor's Marathon in Anchorage, Seattle Rock N Roll Marathon and See Jane Run, a 1/2 marathon touting chocolate and champagne. Write for more info or to register for the group.
