Wifer Stronger

The wifer has been training for her Oliver 1/2 Iron Tri next month and the fruits of her labor seem to be paying off!  She has been diligently sticking to her training schedule and having had last year's Boise 1/2 Iron Tri behind her, she is better prepared in terms of what to expect too.

It is fun to train, but even better when you get to see the results of all the hard work.  This past week those results for the wifer were pretty impressive.  She managed to whack 19 minutes off of the same mountain bike race she did last year (in a 2 hour race)!  She has done the Unravel the Scratch Gravel race in Helena the past 2 yrs (this year being her 3rd).  She forwarded the  results to me yesterday and I was psyched to see her solid mid pack and reaping the benefits of her training.

She has been much more dedicated than I have this year - so it is the balloon effect in the Reis home this year...she has pushed the balloon on one end causing it to push up on the other end...I still have about a month and a half to get some training in before the BC Bike race....come on weather, play nice(r).

Here is to hoping her training and race prep continues to go well.....
