I see you live in Corvallis. I went to University of Oregon and really miss living out there. You are lucky.

So not only am I now addicted to this forum, but I’m joining a team and blogging??!!? What has happened to my life! :open_mouth: haha

Rachel - I’m so excited you’ve started your own blog! I check your Team Timex spot but that’s more for race reports and I know your blog will be a good read with cute kid photos. Yeah! In case people missed it: http://www.rachelrosshawaii.blogspot.com/

That is a great photo of you running. Did you finally get a Title 9 catalog with your photos in it?

Thanks Erika. Ghia Girl started one as well - http://whatsmaggsupto.blogspot.com/

And yes, I finally got T9. And we shot some more last week… we get everything so late out here in Hawaii! My mom had it weeks before I did.

Your new home page is really cute. I love the graphics!

All the chick blogs I love are on mine. I agree with njtrigirl, ELF’s is just awesome. As are a lot of her friends. I mostly jump to Bree’s friends :slight_smile:

Excellent, I tried to load your MSN space (link from Team Xantusia) but it wouldn’t open but this one works great! I’ve added you to my links list and will check in on you.

Nice list you have there. One of my other goals is to keep mine more up to date.

cuds- not to highjack the thread, but I read your blog…
How do you like multisports.com?

18

I think multisports.com is awesome! I’m really happy with it. Beyond the programs being really detailed etc etc, you can ask the coaches questions at any time through their forum and they usually reply within 1-2 days (unless it’s around an IM event they are attending, then it might take a couple extra days). There’s no limit on the questions you can ask, and there’s no extra charge for these either. I think the best part of the questions is that because they are on a forum anyone can see the questions/responses (questions can be submitted “anonymously”) and they are all there dating back to around 2002. And a plus for the womens: because Heather Fuhr and Paula Newby-Fraser are in the mix, any “womanly” questions get either answered by them or have their female input on. I also noticed that a couple people have been on a program for one IM and ended up winning a lottery slot for Kona. Rather than waste more money on another training program and whatnot, they were happy to transfer their program over at no charge.
It should be noted: I am part of the Ironcops for Cancer team and was looking for donations for our auction. I e-mailed multisports.com to see if they would donate the IMC program to our auction - the next morning I had a response with a definite yes. They even sent me some goodies (socks, t-shirt, visor, swim cap), at no cost, to add to the auction. I’m lucky enough to have some good people around me that won me the auction so that’s how I snagged the program.
Obviously, I’m really impressed haha. I would definitely recommend it to anyone! :slight_smile:

Updated on the Team site :slight_smile:

And my blog (for now) is the Miles of Life link in my signature for those interested in joining me.

Amanda’s blog is great! Always entertaining!
I started a blog last year, but mine’s quite boring…mostly race reports. I started it as a requirement for a tri team I was on last year.
