Who Snows?

From this today...



To this!!!

Looks like Lake Tahoe got some snow... nothing too crazy!  But enough for me to blog about ;)
I will be in Texas this weekend YES!

Watch out for your counter partner because he might be mad that you are going home and not him!
It's ok though, he gets some time off right when I meet up with him in Detroit.

He missed btw!

I may or may not be bloggin' the next couple of days we will see.  "Hopefully" I will be too busy!

Where is IronGambit?

I've been INSANELY busy since my time off, but it looks like it's going to pay.  As soon as I make it to San Jose I will not be doing that event.  I will have a break until the Detroit Marathon.
After I left New Mexico my plane ended up being delayed,  so I had to fly to Omaha instead of Chicago to regroup with my team.

These are the pics from the last two days.




There is some snow around Wyoming and my trip down to Nevada.  You can see it on the mountains on the second to last picture!
the goal is to be in San Jose, California tomorrow.  Looks good so far ;)
I've been doing a lot of "hotel" running.  Since the bike is so hard to have around on the tour.  Check up on Sagers blog also, he should be having some pretty cool news coming up !
Also for those of you that have my schedule it looks like I might be ending the year with Vegas and Hawaii instead of Vegas then Dallas!  Sorry Allez it's Hawaii!!!!!
We will see though.
If you want a copy of my schedule for the rest of the year, just send me a shout out and I will be happy to e-mail it to you!

Albuquerque, New Mexico - Recap

This town is known for two things:
The first is of Bugs Bunny, he always should have taken that right at albuquerque!
And the second of course is the Largest Air Balloon Show in the World.






I was originally scheduled to work the Chicago Marathon, but we are starting a new tour called "Rock with Crocs."
This also will be a nation wide tour.  I was there to help set up the event, and made sure that things went smoothly.
It looks like the new crew is going to make the cut!

Change in my Schedule...

I was scheduled to work the Chicago Marathon this weekend but with the last minute changes, it looks like I will be going to New Mexico instead, for the Hot Air Balloon Festival!
It sounds like a lot of fun and the pictures should be awesome!  it's the largest balloon show in the world and last 10 days long.  I will only be there from tomorrow through Sunday.

After that I will fly to Chicago and help work the way across the country to San Jose, California.
Just to have an idea of what's been going on I was in Denver, Kanasas, and I will be in New Mexico tomorrow.

Here are some left over pics from the DC event.

Below:  A protester that has been there for YEARS!

Below:  His shirt says... "Spanish Triathlons"

I was reading the book "It's Only a Mountain" from Team Hoyt.
I finished it a couple of days, so I will be working on "Marathon Man."

While I was in Denver for some corporate meetings I was out harassing nature, to tell you the truth those rabbits are fearless!


Here are some other sponsors of the Nations Tri that we hung out with... to be honest with you, those pics are for J.Sager... whoever that guy is.


But... if you see a random guy traveling with four cases of Vault and a BIG bag of assorted Sharpies, that guy is definetly NOT me.

D.C.s Nations Triathlon

I have a good amount of pics from my days spent in D.C.
Right now I am in West Virginia... Tomorrow I will be in Indy, then the day after that I will be in Boulder, Co.  I will post pics as fast as I can!  They just might be a few days behind!
Thanks for attempting to keep up :)






For some reason I like this picture below, it has the capital in the background, a single girl staring at the monument and a got some motion blur of some bugs flying around the light.






Below:  This is probably a personal favorite.  The Wall has very low light at night... so I tried my best to get a good night shot.  It has my co-worker in the background infront of the monument, looking at the wall reading the names of the fallen soldiers,  as the light barely grazes the cooble stone path.

It's been a really long time since I have been back to D.C.  It was a good experience and glad that I "toured" it at night.
If you want a better view of the pics just click to enlarge.
My Flickr account has gone over it's 200 photo free package.. so my older pics will not be viewable  :/

Up in D.C.

While Jason Sager is kickin' it at Interbike in Vegas right now... I am in Washington D.C. for the Nations Triathlon.
Before I left from home though, I got to hang out with a few friends including the infamous "piojo" who is sporting some new shoes, that he wears while eating Snickers Marathon bars  ;)
Also a friend of mine Jazy Garcia, called me up while I was with a few other friends... Letty and her husband Oscar.
I don't know what the first pic was about.. but it was probably pretty funny!

This second one is a little more serious...

Jazy and I both met in this exact location literally one year ago.  It was just dumb luck that he was in town at the exact sametime that I was.  We both flew out that next day also.
A quick bio on Jazy Garcia...
not only is he a good friend of mine, but he is a professional cyclist that raced in the olympics for Guam.
That explains this gift that he got me!

I just got back from walking around D.C.
It is a BEAUTIFUL city at night!  I'll let my pictures do the talking later when I post them!

The End is Near!

The end of my vacation time that is :(
I have been off for several days now and it feels GREAT! 

I went to Orlando for a couple of days and I am here in Texas right now... on Tuesday I fly back to Philadelphia then head out to Whashington D.C. for the Nations Triathlon.
Here are some pics!

While in Orlando I did the Disney thing, and I also went to a Shakespearian play called "The Comedy of Errors."


That was all the pictures that I could take since it was no photography during the play... I admit though, it was pretty fun!






After all of the fun and excitment I worked really hard to get me some tail!

I was successful, so I came back to Texas a satisfied man.

When In Philadelphia...

You run up the steps that Rocky ran right?

I wouldn't do that!  Or would I?...

The Philadelphia distance run started out with playing the Rocky song, that's not cliche' at all!


The expo wasn't as packed as we had expected, but the turn out for actual event was pretty much the opposite!

After the race was over we did some touristy stuff.





Is touristy even a word?
