Off Season

I have been full on off season mode for the past few weeks and now things are just starting to pick up again. The time off was great. The biggest thing that happened was Chris and my wedding in Sayulita Mexico. It was a totally low key affair with close friends and family. The days were filled with surfing, stand up paddling, beach volleyball, margaritas, beer and fish tacos. I didnt even think about putting on my running shoes or cap/goggles for the entire 10 days we were there. Everything was perfect - thanks in large part to my mom! We got a lot of great pictures, some of which I have below. The best ones I have to post later. Like Chris and me surfing in our lucha libre masks.




The railing behind us had no fence and nothing underneath. Except 175 feet below there was ocean and rocks. This kind of building would not have passed codes in the US.

Cutting the cake - again, the work of my mom who found a baker who could make a dia de los muertos themed cake.

Our gift to the guests - a very fun fireworks show.

And the late night parties begin. I am not happy to be carried by a bunch of sweaty dudes. I now know how Chris feels when I try and hug him after triathlons.


Then came my favorite holiday. This was before the turkey trot. Chris woke up sick, but I told him to suck it up because it was his hangover. He promised he was sick. Then 5 hours later I realized he really was sick and caught the stomach bug just in time for Thanksgiving dinner. I still tried to eat as much as I normally do, but that wasnt the smartest thing.

Now it is time to get back into shape and start training for IMTX! Off season officially over.
