Next Stop, Noosa!
So, in the midst of all the job searching, wedding planning, and challenge eating, I’ve neglected to tell you that it’s Noosa Week! Well, not yet, but as of Friday it is! What am I on about are you asking? The Noosa Triathlon Festival– it’s The Runner’s favourite triathlon of them all and it’s because…

Port
So this weekend is the Port Macquarie Ironman, that’s come around quickly! The Runner is driving up today and I fly up on Friday. I know he’s put in lots of training but it somehow seems less traumatic than the one is Busselton. This one has sort of snuck up on me to be honest,…

Spoiler Alert!
Spoiler alert: The Runner is running! He’s just started the 20km run and looks pretty good and strong, which means he survived the bike! Hooray! The scariest part of the day (for me at least) is done! He hasn’t crashed his bike or gone flying off over the handlebars. What a relief!! Hopefully I won’t…

On your mark, Get Set, Go!
It’s race day in Husky– right about now The Runner is treading water in anticipation of the starters gun. Drinks have been measured, (non-alcoholic so far, he still has a whole race to get through!), gels have been glued, carbs have been loaded (thanks to a brown rice and chicken dinner last night– I’ve done…

What (or who) is your nemesis?
The Runner has one. I have one. Superman has one. I’m sure everyone has one. And that’s a nemesis. In Greek Mythology, Nemesis was the Goddess of Revenge, she’s the one that brings “sorrow to mortals” (according to Wikipedia which doesn’t lie). Nemesis also believed that “no one should ever have too much good, and…

I lied
So I sort of lied when I said that not much was going on a week or so ago. That’s definitely not true- it’s just that all the stuff that’s going on is pretty normal, boring stuff. I guess it’s called everyday life. But there’s so much of it going on that I forgot this…

Update from Noosa
So, it’s been an action packed and fabulous time in Noosa and we’re not done yet! I absolutely adore Noosa (except that the grocery store closes at 5:30 on Saturday night- it is 2012 Noosa, I’m sure you can manage a 9pm finish). The race itself was good, The Runner did a PB (personal best)…

It’s Noosa time!
Tomorrow, we make our annual pilgrimage North for the Noosa Triathlon, or the Noosa Multisport Festival as it calls itself. Personally, a Multisport Festival makes me think of the Olympics or at least a Sports Day at school- but alas, there are no 3 legged races, egg and spoon races, or fencing, so I’ll refer to…

Changes already….
Well, we’ve been live for an hour and already we have a name change…. Nigella’s Revenge is now, He Runs I cook. Why you might ask?? Well, The Boy is currently training for yet another triathlon, which means 1, long hours of training, and 2, a very hungry Boy. We both have very separate…
