Where in the world are we?



How about Disneyworld?! We just got back on Sunday night. It was a total last-minute trip, with all of the reservations made about 3 weeks ago. Mom and Dad drove down from Michigan, stopped in South Carolina for a few days, and then met us in Orlando. The first night was our traditional dinner at TGI Friday's and then putt putt at Pirate's Cove. Mom actually got a hole in one. We spent the next four days at Disney and spent some time at each park. We even had some new rides to go on this time...the Everest roller coaster was great but Mission Space made us a bit green. We also spent a few mornings at Typhoon Lagoon too. All of us had a great time and we can't wait to go back!

I uploaded some photos to Flikr- click here to check them out.

2009 race schedule

I went gung-ho with my training a couple months ago, won two races and now, well, I'm losing some motivation. I went into this season with really only two goals- to race the 24 hrs of Spokane and to prepare for cyclocross. Somewhere along the way I started adding MTB races to my calendar and I'm a bit overwhelmed. So I've retooled my race plans...

-May 3: Indie Series #2- South Seatac
-May 8: 12 hours of South Seatac. Training event.
-May 23-24: 24 hours of Spokane. I'd like to do 10 laps, but that's pretty ambitious.
-May 30: Trioba Sprint adventure race with the guys.
-June 6: Indie Series #4- Bavarian Bike & Brew
-June 21: Indie Series #5- Methow Valley
-July 12: Indie Series #6-Padden MTN Pedal- Bellingham
-July 18-19: Seattle Night and Day Challenge. Only if the weather is nice though!

After that I'm headed to Poland for 2 weeks then it's time to get ready for 'cross season!

Falling behind!

Yikes- I'm falling behind on my posts. Just a few notes:

-www.ericandkaryn.com will cease to exist at some point in the near future. I did not renew our domain name because I am cheap. Not sure what will take it's place if anything. We'll still use our Flikr page for photos though.
-We're going to Disneyworld at the end of the month! Yea!
-The weather really, really sucks here in Seattle. It snowed this morning.
-We're putting out house up for sale in the very near future. And no, we're not moving out of the state although the weather here is making me want to move somewhere warm.

That's it for now!
