Matt, Stina, Merete & Finn bought a NEW HOUSEMatt and Stina went on a whim to check out this little number in Maryland, and ended up putting in an offer "just to see", and it was accepted! They are new homeowners! They're going to keep their house on Capitol Hill and rent it out (with the tiny house in back, of course). This is WONDERFUL NEWS because they had outgrown their row house on the Hill. This new place is a block away from a neighborhood PARK, has three bedrooms and I think 2.5 or so bathrooms, and it has its own yard.... just wonderful! I can't wait to go for a visit.
I love my Podiatrist!I've been having lots of pain in my feet for awhile now, specifically MUCH worse when I'm wearing any kind of heel.... so, FINALLY, I got up the courage to visit my wonderful podiatrist. I was certain he'd tell me my days of heels were over for good... But, he took some x-rays, and low and behold, I've got overuse fractures in both my feet in the bones specifically "under" my big toe. Apparently, this is not uncommon for someone "my age" and with my "level of activity". I must have injured myself at some point, not bad enough to know at the time, but then with the continued pounding, over time, here I am... in pain & needing a tune-up... Anyway, the BEST thing about this is, they will HEAL with some TLC! And, I'll be comfortable again in heels! (not to mention overall, have happier feet). Dr. Keith Gurnick took some molds of both my feet for orthotics. That was pretty cool. I took some photos, but with my phone, and I'm not sure how to get them off...So, if you're looking for a great Podiatrist, then please consider Dr. Keith Gurnick... a runner himself, an all around great guy... He's in Century City -- 2080 Century Park East #204, 310-553-7691.
Strawberry Fields Triathlon :: Sunday, March 25th
Bright & early (well, technically, not very BRIGHT), here are Suzy and Jeff at 6am... consider this a pre-wedding photo. Their wedding date is scheduled for Dec. 15th of this year... they hope to involve their doggies in the ceremony!
Below -- Michelle, Heather, me, Brendon, Paul, Kathryn and Luis pose in front of the LATC tents before the races go off. Everyone comes out of the woodwork for this event -- one of the first big clubber outings for each season. Always something to write home about! Our own Jamie Silber and Dean Theadore are the Race Directors.
Check out this little fella! Only 8-weeks old or so, and already showing his team spirit!! (soooooo cute!!)...
Jen Kramer & Stella Tong revving up for the SWIM. These ladies are both going long... wayyyy long, as in IRONMAN this season at CdA in June. This little sprint was a warm-up for them. GO Girls!
Yep... it was an early morning (see fabulous hairdo here) -- This is me w/my little brother, Jesse. Yes, he's tall -- he clocks in at just about 6'3" or just over or something.
Here is Jordan Woods, who took Podium honors on behalf of himself and representing the Club, along with at least a dozen others. From this event, he headed to a cycling race... impressive!
