Know what happens under a full moon on snowy mountain trails?

Go find out! Photos will never capture it ✨

Equally magical: the bison burgers at @tennpassco after a skate ski lesson and skiing uphill to get there. Be back soon!

Ski to work day! ❄️🌨️🎿

I've been waiting for this moment all winter. Denver finally got enough snow to cross-country ski half a mile to my desk at @yellowdogdenver

It only mostly worked. By the time I got there, the sunshine and and plows were already making it rough. No idea how I'm getting home 🤷‍♀️

Sick of winter? ❄️

My approach last weekend was to jab it in the ice-face with big hooks and crampons.

If you haven't tried ice climbing, head to Ouray, CO. I'm not a real climber, but my coach friends guided me to the top by the end of day two. Then we took it easy with a day on the slopes in Crested Butte.

Anyone else like to spin at home with some candles?

I'm getting way too comfortable on this @wahoofitnessofficial indoor trainer. I may never go outside again!

Old Man Winter route, plus a bonus climb up Gold Hill.

This was a crazy odyssey of mixed terrain, big climbs, and long chilly downhills.

Not bad for late January! See you again next year, Old Man

Here's a cool thing.

I was featured in Shoutout Colorado recently.
https://shoutoutcolorado.com/meet-cynthia-ord-marketer-blogger/ (also in bio)

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others.

Shoutout to everyone, past and present, who has contributed to this current version of me. I feel like it's only getting better!

HT @where_is_karl for photos 1 and 2.

Any other Zwifters out there?

I finally got my bike trainer set up. Went with the @wahoofitnessofficial Kickr Snap and the @gozwift app. Here's what my first real ride looked like.

Bicycle hut trip part 3: The snow! We knew it was

Bicycle hut trip part 3: The snow!

We knew it was coming. It had been in the forecast since before the trip, so we packed ALL the layers.

Waking up on day 3 to a thin dusting of snow, the sun came out and it didn't seem that bad. Then, we crossed the border to Utah and clouds rolled in. We got snowed on up and down La Sal pass, riding in single-digit temps.

Things got a little survival-mode from there, ending with a pickup truck savior who towed 4 out of 5 of us the last 10 miles into Moab.

Let me just say I am SO STINKING PROUD of my dad, age 70, for roughing it out with a bunch of millennials. Boomer can crush.

I'll be booking this trip again next year, hope to make it an Oct tradition. Reach out if you want in!
