Its been quite a year these past 12 months. I have been on every continent in the World this year for the first time ever in a single 12 months and am currently in Bermuda with my family taking a break and doing a small race here. One of my good friends Tyler Butterfield is getting married to his long time girlfriend Nikki Egard and we are lucky here to celebrate with them. Tyler is a Bermuda boy and I met him and his family here back in 1996. I have been here a few times over the years to catch up and cant believe young Tyler is getting married. I was here in January of this year and hung out and decided this was the place to bring my family for our end of season holiday. It is close to the USA, great weather and lovely friends.
We are staying at the Elbow Beach Resort on the south shore of the Island and it is absolutely unreal. Earlier this year I was able to meet Cindy Crawford at a triathlon event. Growing up in the 80's most guys my age would remember Cindy and probably had a couple of pictures of her up on their walls. I had the opportunity to spend a bit of time with her and her family in Malibu and it was a really cool experience. She was so centred and down to earth it was a breath of fresh air. Still looks amazing aswell.
Anyway the reason behind this blog is I found out today that Cindy is checking into this hotel here in Bermuda on Friday afternoon and will stay for a few days. That is the word here in Bermuda anyway. Hopefully will get the chance to hang out and introduce my family to her. It has been a hectic year, but I guess the time on the road has left me open to meeting some pretty cool people. Cindy was one of them.
Anyway my youngest daughter Sienna is screaming for me to head down the beach so I better go. Will add some pictures of this wonderful Island and hopefully a couple more with Cindy again if we cross paths here.
Safe training,
Morning, the blog looks great and glad your starting it up. You talked about Cindy being down to earth and I had the same impression as you this past year at Wildflower. Good luck with the up coming year, have fun training and enjoy your trip.
