Hope you all had a nice holiday weekend!
Since we couldn't be where we really wanted to be.....which is in Florida for the much anticipated wedding of cousin Nina & Pete (shout out to the world's cutest couple!)...we kicked it at home.
Home as in our home break. It might not be the best waves, but they're our waves...
And we virtually had the waves to ourselves, because hypothermia isn't everybody's cup of tea...
Happy grommets, happy parents. Happy Memorial Day!
Why thank you, Puck. Your class presentation on Great Whites was so informative!
...because since all of us here in the house of Spiderbyte spend so much of our free time bobbing along on surf boards, it sure is nice to know that if we are, in fact, picked off by a Great White, it's really just a big misunderstanding.
From time to time you'll see me posting about things like off season training, race reviews, and all things bikes. But this is a family blog, and most of what we do as a family involves surfboards, mayhem, and general chaos. So, I keep the training updates to a minimum (I'm trusting you don't really want to hear about my glute pain and oozing blisters, right?).
So, lucky for you I now have a place to complain/rave/recommend/review all things race related, a place where readers actually do care about riveting topics such as how to avoid chafe and which Gu Shot won't give you IBS.
I'll be writing for a series of US Roads Sports blogs, and I hope you'll all come over and check it out when they're fully up & running. I had a blast racing at their ING Miami Half Marathon last winter, but they also host marathons in New Jersey, Chicago, Sarasota, Georgia, and New York, to name a few. Yup, I feel pretty psyched to be part of their writing team!
Not to worry, I'll be shamelessly cross posting as soon as they're live. Stay tuned!
Holy Moly! ....This weekend brought nice weather and good surf. What more could the Spiderbyte crew ask for?
We spent a marathon day at the beach on Sunday. The water temp jumped from 51 degrees to about 55 this week (which really translates to the difference between feeling your face or not). Happy days!
Let's just say that when your backyard starts to resemble a Billabong surf camp, it's an indication you've had a really really good weekend...
