Mike Neifert today's question: ex...

Track and share your training!

Dailymile makes it easy to keep track of your workouts. Map your routes and share with a community of active people.

Today's question:
Explain your profile picture. Is it from a race? Are those your kids? Your dog? Your shoes? Tell us the story.

I was at a swim meet walking the 8 and under kids around to the other side of the pool for their relays. My daughter thought I looked like a daddy duck leading his ducklings along, so she snapped the picture.

    My profile pic was taken at the WORS Subaru Cup. WORS is the largest state mtn bike series in the US. And this year it was a USA Cycling National event. It was pretty awesome to see the top riders in the country right in my back yard.

    My profile pic is of my 6.5 Madone. It was my birthday gift from my husband. I'm pretty short and have always had to ride with 650 wheels and had a hard time keeping up. This WSD bike is my first bike with 700 and it's made all the difference in the world. It's also my first double as I've always had triple chain ring. It's an awesome ride.

    MIne is taken at the second control of my first official audax in 2007. It was cold and stormy (as a headwind ) and up to then I among others hat just about managed to get there in time. I was exhausted, soaked to the core, and kept stuffing myself with fries.

    Mine is from the finish of my first marathon, which I won! The marathon was in June in the south of Taiwan, and I was hot and had well and truly hit the wall several kms earlier.
