What an amazing week it has been here in Denver. Everyone has stories of seeing this celeb or that journalist all around the city. Many of our friends are volunteering and attending events. We are all soaking up the insanity.

A cool, cloudy Boulder day created perfect conditions for the 5430 1/2 Ironman Triathlon this year. This is the 3rd time I’ve done this race and the 13.1 mile run around Boulder Reservoir is always brutal. This proved to be the case in 2008 also. But, plenty of Gatorade and Hammer Gel got me through. Thanks to Sarah, Mark and Gemma for cheering me on!

Congrats to Mark and Gemma for finishing the 2008 Boulder Peak Triathlon! This triathlon is an Olympic Distance race which consists of a 1.5km swim, 40km bike and 10km run. They both did a great job despite the 100 degree heat…and anyone that has every run around Boulder Reservoir knows the sun is intense and brutal with zero shade.
Matt Reed from Boulder, CO won the Men’s Pro Division and will competing in Beijing.

Sarah and I spent July 4th in Silverthorne with Susanna, The Schnells and Micha…..and of course, Winnie and Maggie. We metup with a very pregnant Sara and Quincy at Keystone Lake for fireworks then back to the house for some serious Rock Band competition. On Saturday we mountain biked the Peaks Trail that starts on Peak 7 and ends in Frisco. Sarah and Susanna took the dogs on a huge hike leaving from Black Hawk and taking the Eagle’s Nest to Gore Range trail. We all met for some cold beers and lunch at the Backcountry Brewery, so nice!

Another amazing year at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival! I tagged along with Schnell and Marie as we drove South to the San Juans and into Telluride. We camped at Town Park again this year with all of the Festivarians. Marie and I had a great hike up Bear Creek Falls, I rode Schnell’s Cruiser Bike all over town, hiked Bridal Veil, hung out with Rob and Karli at The Peaks resort, talked to Bela Fleck, had lunch with Kentucky Thunder (well, sat next to them at least)…..and listened to about 50 bands over 4 days. What a week.
