Tuscon!


As you may have guessed I am not that good at the whole "daily blog" entry thing. When there is nothing going on I've got time and nothing to write about; when lots of stuff is happening I have content but no time. What's a girl to do?

Anyways, August has been a busy month for the McGlone-English household. We moved to our new home in Tucson, AZ. We have loved training here for many winters so we decided to finally make it our full-time residence. It might be 100 degrees here now but I can't wait till January to call all our friends up in Canada and rub it in.

Here are some pics of the house. We absolutely love it and we feel like we are now officially "real people" (i.e. we finally ditched the brown velour couch from the student days) Now we have a pool and central air - crazy, what will they think of next ?

Training here is awesome – I roll out my door to one of the best/hardest group rides in the country - a 10 minute spin to the U of A campus, then 3 hours of lung searing hell through the desert with a hundred of my best friends every Saturday morning. There are great run trails right out the door and outdoor pools all over town (which is still a novelty for us Canadians…).

Now to complete this picture of domestic bliss we are thinking of getting a dog. It's a toss up between a beagle, a wheaton terrier or just a mutt from the pound. Anyone have any thoughts? Post them here!

Happy training!
