TriFest 2012...a photogentastic journey, Tucson, AZ!

Team TriSports 2012!  It was a wonderful experience meeting and training with these talented, inspirational teammates!
Some free associations from TriFest 2012, March 23-24, Tucson, AZ (post-marathon the Sunday before!):
Epic 9,000+ foot bike climb up Mt. Lemmon....being passed by TJ Tollakson with disc wheel in aero position up mountain...descent for the ages - "weeeeeeeee!"...kids sledding on the mountain...fabulous team dinner, learning more about this great company I am privileged to represent...anime festival kids running around hotel with blue hair and other assorted get-ups...standing next to greatness in team photo shoot...riding to pending doom, er "surprise" work-out (which turned out to be fabulously fun mini-tri!)...ride back to TriSports and expo, "watch out for the coat hangers in the road!"...anime kid with mermaid tail jumping in hotel pool (not a hallucination)...party time, Casino Night!  Double down!...party bus, blue lights, tiki bar, buddha-looking man with god complex...sleep?
TriSports.com hosted TriFest...an epic weekend consisting of a group ride up Mt. Lemmon, expo at the store, activities for Team TriSports and a "Casino Night" party behind the store.  Here I am at the start of the Mt. Lemmon ride.
Water and Gu break 12 miles up...only 14 to go!
We made it!  So grateful Chris got to share this amazing weekend with me!  Met some Canadian guys at the top..."Great day for a ride, eh?!"
On the descent...more snow than we saw in PA this year?!
Chris enjoying the views in the land of eternal sunshine
Hard to stop when you're speeding down, but hard not to with these views!
Back to TriSports!  Check out a video of the ride below.

Setting up "transition" for our mini-tri with fellow PA teammate and TriSports.com athlete of the year, Craig Sheckler!
Off on the bike with Amy Regan!
So enjoyed the company of Sarah Jarvis on the bike and the run!
Back to TriSports for the TriFest expo!
Party time!!!
More party time!!!
Seriously, I can't make this stuff up.  Witnessed this character milling about the hotel pool...along with the mermaid.

Thank you, TriSports.com for an absolutely amazing weekend at TriFest.  I am definitely more energized and ready for my season...after some much needed sleep!
