Ironman 70.3 Geneva, NY was on Sunday, July 13th. Only 3 weeks ago, but I had “planned” to write up a race report blog on the 15th, so this is a little late. It has been a busy 3 weeks of traveling, volunteering, and training, as well as some drastic ups and downs in myContinue reading “Musselman 2025”

Tokyo Marathon 3/2/25
As I mentioned in my last post (a few weeks ago on Father’s Day), I still have most of my Japan trip to write about. A few days ago, I came across this photo on Instagram. I have no idea why it appeared in my feed after so many months. It reminded me that IContinue reading “Tokyo Marathon 3/2/25”
Post IM Roadtrip: Florida-Buffalo
If I finish and post this, it will be my second one of the day. I don’t think that has happened before! But before I can start writing about November, I must share the amazing birds I saw on my beach walk. I bundled up well; it was only 39 degrees and very windy. WalkingContinue reading “Post IM Roadtrip: Florida-Buffalo”
Buffalo Triathlon Club
After 20 years in the Buffalo Triathlon Club I got “featured” in the newsletter in August. I forgot to add this to a post earlier, but just found an old “note” in my calendar. And, yes I do still need to blog about my drives to/from Florida for the Ironman but don’t have time forContinue reading “Buffalo Triathlon Club”
The day after…
It’s been almost 2 weeks since IM Florida but I am just getting to my second post about the experience. My friends and family know about the big personal issues going on for me. It was a lot to deal with while training for Ironman with the broken ankle. But I am finally starting toContinue reading “The day after…”
120 miles in the saddle
As I typed that title it reminded me that I had forgotten to mention something about “Slow Horses” (AppleTV) in my last post. The theme song (played at start and end of episodes) is so perfectly appropriate. I recognized Mick Jagger’s voice but had not heard the song before. ! A few seconds of researchContinue reading “120 miles in the saddle”
Training, racing, training….
On Saturday, August 31st I raced the long course AquaBike at CassadagaMan (1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike). I Couldn’t do the 13 mile run due to the slow recovery of my broken ankle. It’s been 8 weeks since I had my bike crash and I have started doing some short runs on soft surfacesContinue reading “Training, racing, training….”
1st race of 2024
After volunteering all last weekend for the Buffalo Marathon (and I DID sign up to run it in 2025), I had my first multi-sport race of the season yesterday. I REALLY (REALLY!) wanted to write about Alex’s college graduation before this, but as I didn’t get to it last week, I decided it would beContinue reading “1st race of 2024”
CassadagaMan 2023
September 2nd I left the house at 5am for the hour drive south to Cassadaga, NY (site of the Lily Dale Spiritualist Assembly). https://www.lilydaleassembly.org/ It was still dark when I parked at 6am, but the sun rose beautifully over the lake as I collected my registration packet and set up my transition area. The transitionContinue reading “CassadagaMan 2023”
