Big Sur, huh? What's that all about? Excuses, excuses... we've all got them! I may have more than the average human being and I am gonna use one, no, I am gonna use two, right now to explain why there has been a 3 1/2 month gap in blog postings. Newborn and MBA - 'nough said! So if Zoomzer was too busy to blog, compliments of a screaming baby girl and a 10 lb. accounting book,

you can only imagine that other duties fell by the wayside, including the all important triathlon training! A good week these days might include two 30 minute jogs - they are slow so that calling them "runs" seems quite the exaggerating - and maybe a 10 mile spin on the bike. What happened to me?! IBig Sur is a race beyond my ability at this point in time. Come on, I have some legit excuses. Although the Zoomzer team has raced a couple of Ironmans, there is something particularly daunting about this race. My mom and uncle have competed in it a few times and said the gravitational pull on some of the tight corners make for one heck of a tough run. Yes, the views are second to none but they both said this race kicks your booty. On the race homepage there is a quote that absolutely resonates with Zoomzer- Finishing a marathon is a life-changing experiencefinishing Big Sur will enrich your soul - anything that enriches my soul, sign me up. Oh wait, I didn't train and I think it is sold out. Next year?

Keep an eye out for the "Review THIS Race - Zoomzer.com" signs being held up along the course. Don't just look at the view, look at us! We'll be there at the end cheering for all you amazing finishers. Please let Team Zoomzer know if you see anyone competing in the marathon wearing a pair of Sketchers tennis shoes. We have a bet going that someone - there has to be someone - will run in a pair. Take a picture and let us know! More importantly, what am I, and what are all the rest of your formerly fit slackers, going to do about it? We're gonna buck up and get back in shape by signing up for some races. First on the list, select a late Summer/early Fall half ironman. Second, train for a Spring time half marathon. I've always wanted to try one of the Big Sur events. Maybe this is the year? Who wants to join Zoomzer?! http://www.zoomzer.com
