Health First Tri










Today several Team Hendryx athletes competed in the Health First Tri. It was very hot and if you're here in FLA you know what I mean! 95 degrees is just a little too toasty for my liking. Despite the heat Bill W. placed 1st AG, Sean 1st Master Overall and Kevin J. 2nd AG . Mike R had a good day, but they did not have the results up yet for him, so I can't say how he placed. Mike Russo unfortunately not only flatted, but sliced his tire and had to wait an hour for help. He continued on to finish the race. Great work everyone! BTW, congrats to another Team Hendryx athlete, Dan who qualified for the Boston Marathon today at Chicago. Way to go everyone!

5430 Triathlon





The race is called "5430" because that is the elevation of Boulder,CO where this race took place. Sean and Team Hendryx client Kevin Johnson competed. Being flatlanders from FL , the race was already tough. Sean had a good day finishing 13th in his age group. Kevin J. had a good day as well. The weather was fabulous and as always , the venue gorgeous!.
day as well.
Any one interested in this race for next summer, you will find it list as one of the 70.3 race as it was just bought out by the Ironman corporation.

James Peak ,CO hike



Hi All,
So this was my workout Sunday, a 10 mile hike up to James Peak at 13,000 ft. elevation. Leslie my sister, Betty her dog, myself and Dixie (our dog) had a great day . Dixie got to swim in a beautiful glacial lake. It was very windy at the top as you can see in the above photo.

Mt. Audubon


Today I hiked up Mt.Audubon with Leslie and her friends,elevation 13,300 ft. She is training for Pikes Peak Marathon which is in August. Leslie and her friend Andy jogged up and I tried to jog where I could and power walk the other parts. I went up a little too fast and got a massive headache and very dizzy from the altitude change. This pic is the top and you can see the weather was starting to get a little iffy so we couldn't hangout long. When you're above tree line and there's a chance of lightening, it best to get down asap. Near the bottom as we headed down the storm rolled in and there was thunder all around. I stated running to get down faster since I had a hiking pole that would be a great lightening rod. Great day ,great workout. I did wonder about the man we saw starting up the mt. with a big metal baby carrier on his back and a baby in it. People do some "funny" things.

FL to CO


Sean and I are doing our annual trip for the summer to Boulder where my family lives. We look forward to our trip each year. The only part we don't enjoy is the very long drive. We usually make it a 2 day trip to get there. This will be Dixie's first trip to CO. I think she'll be fine. Can't wait to get in some dry, cool air.

Sean will be racing the 5430 in Boulder. This pic is of Sean at the local "stroke and stride" training race whiich uses the same venue as the 5430 longcourse race.
