Each month we strive to put a spotlight on quality triathlon-related websites and endurance sports blogs authored by A-MAZING moms ... Enduramoms... who live an endurance lifestyle of regular racing, swimming, biking, and/or running.
Today we discovered a superb trail running blog! Trail Smitten Mom has a running habit ... and wow...a postcard worthy "backyard" full of lush trails to run the outdoors and then some. This week she includes a rave trail running review of the beautiful North Shore in Lowell, Oregon (remember... you heard it here first... Oregon is abuzz as the place to travel and be in the USA this year).
Oh... and girlfriend is not just any trail runner.... she climbs tree roots (maybe I should say massive downed tree root walls?) for fun too... which is WAY more exciting than little Spiderman scaling some boring office building or ... a fridge for that matter (someone hand this munchkin some cookies before he gets into the airducts!)
Oh... and if you find yourself wondering, what in the world is an Enduramom? Visit our Facebook Fan Page and Twitter feed to find details, moms like YOU, inspiring stories, and more.
It's been a few weeks since a quality post has been ... well... um posted here on blogger.com. I've been a bit absent from literal blogging lately, opting instead to do the majority of group updates through the Enduramoms Facebook Fan Page and via our Twitter feed. In the meantime, a new virtual brag book has been setup up on the Enduramoms Facebook Fan Page. If you've got medals, trophies, plaques, bowls (yep! it happens), and ribbons to brag about... and I KNOW you do... please upload your pix to our new photo album: Hardware Boulevard. It's great fun to see the variety of medals, trophies, and ribbons being awarded out there. I'm ESPECIALLY excited to see what is being given out around the world as a race prize! We've got Enduramoms checking in from over 13 countries (woohoo!) on the Facebook page, so consider this your official call to action. If you're already on facebook, it's pretty easy to share from an existing album or you can upload right from a folder on your system. Thanks for checking in!
First time here? This is what we're all about:
Enduramoms, LLC™ is a company created by a triathlete mom - for MOMS who love triathlon and other endurance related sports. Doing more in 24 takes discipline and dedication; at Enduramoms™ we "get it".
In 2011 Enduramoms.com™ will provide a global community for us to share the experience. Enduramoms™ gear will also be available through the site later this year. We are here for ALL moms who love endurance sports like running, triathlon, Ironman racing, marathons, DUs, adventure racing, swimming...etc.
Our Mission
The Enduramoms™ mission is to unify and inspire a global population of moms who participate in endurance sports, promote triathlon participation, and ignite the positive spirit derived from being an endurance athlete. We will accomplish our mission by providing a web community to collectively share our experiences, tips, inspiration, and goals.
So ... that's it in a nutshell. Will you be joining the revolution of moms that go by the endearing label of Enduramom? Are you already juggling triathlon training, family life, carpool duty... and rocking it?
Monday's are usually a tough one for Moms that do Endurance sport...and we're all hitting that back to school time frame where we will have less and less time to train. On the other hand, some of you are gearing up for your 'A' triathlon or Ironman race of the year. Put your race or training goals in focus and then read these great song lyrics. I think (and I know I'm not alone here) the lyrics from the Rascal Flatts song "Unstoppable" are amazing. Have a read then a view of Lisa Smith Batchen's finishing video from Running Hope Through America. I think the pairing will give you enough inspiration for not only a week, but perhaps years.
Impossible
by Rascal Flatts
Yeah yeah yeah..
Hey
So, so you made a lot of mistakes
Walked down the road a little sideways
Cracked a brick when you hit the wall
Yeah, you've had a pocket full of regrets
Pull you down faster than a sunset
Hey, it happens to us all
When the cold hard rain just won't quit
And you can't see your way out of it
CHORUS
You find your faith has been lost and shaken
You take back what's been taken
Get on your knees and dig down deep
You can do what you think is impossible
Keep on believing, don't give in
It'll come and make you whole again
It always will, it always does
Love is unstoppable
Love, it can weather any storm
