I put a lot of pressure on myself this season to see some significant improvement and it just wasn&#8217;t happening in my races; I&#8217;d see awesome times in training but would [...]]]></description><link>http://www.tandemhearts.com/wordpress/see-jane-tri-2011/</link> </item> <item><title>Ebbetts Pass (Metric) Century</title> <description><![CDATA[Although it is very late in the cycling &#8220;season&#8221; here, we are finally getting in some good rides. It has been quite a while since we rode regularly,  so we don&#8217;t really know what kind of cycling  shape we are in.  Naturally,  we picked a 64 mile ride with about 8,000 feet of climbing, at [...]]]></description><link>http://www.tandemhearts.com/wordpress/ebbetts-pass-metric-century/</link> </item> <item><title>The Wall</title> <description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re lucky to have a great Regional Park nearby &#8211; Black Diamond Mines.  It is an awesome place to mountain bike with great trails and spectacular views of Mt Diablo and the Delta.   There is one section called &#8220;The Wall&#8221;  that is really tough to get up.  It rises up about 600 feet in just [...]]]></description><link>http://www.tandemhearts.com/wordpress/the-wall/</link> </item> <item><title>Why do I do this again?</title> <description><![CDATA[&#8220;Everyone else looks like they are having fun. You look totally freaked and stressed,&#8221;  Thom said as we were waiting for my swim wave to start at the beginning of my race. And I was totally freaked and stressed, so much so I thought I might barf.  My stomach was  twisted up like a pretzel.  [...]]]></description><link>http://www.tandemhearts.com/wordpress/why-do-i-do-this-again/</link> </item> <item><title>Tri For Fun</title> <description><![CDATA[I am disappointed with how this race went.  But a bad race can be a learning experience.
&#160;
I have been dealing with chest congestion, stuffy nose and a mild sore  throat which I was attributing to post nasal drip &#8211;  the last couple of  weeks.  I figured it was allergy related and [...]]]></description><link>http://www.tandemhearts.com/wordpress/tri-for-fun/</link> </item> <item><title>Angels Camp Triathlon</title> <description><![CDATA[The Sierra Foothills are so beautiful, but the weather is sort of  iffy in May. The week before this race we had a week of real May weather &#8211; temps in the high 70s, low 80s.    I like racing when it&#8217;s on the warm side.

On a more somber note, we also visited some of the war memorials on The Mall.
As always, click on the photos for more pictures.

Most of the year this doesn&#8217;t matter, but in the Spring all the trees bloom at the same time.  Well, almost at the same time.
