2006 Boulder County Business Report IQ Awards
Last night Jani, Donavon, Gear and I attended the IQ Awards show at the University of Colorado's Stadium Club. This was a great opportunity to network and meet other innovative companies within Boulder County. We even met some of TrainingPeaks customers who use our tools daily.

One of the great surprises was to run into triathlon superstars Nicole and Tim DeBoom. Nicole and Tim who were on hand representing Nicole's clothing company Skirt Sports ( http://www.skirtsports.com/). Nicole even took home the top honor within the sports and outdoor category.

Tim had just returned from a Tri-Dubai training camp in Kona. I can't imagine how hot it is over there training now in that Hawaiin sun. It is hard enough being a spectator on race day in that heat and humidity. It is certainly the opposite of training in Colorado's dry altitude heat.

TrainingPeaks next big focus is preparing for Interbike trade show where we will have our own booth this year for the first time. I can't wait to just hang out and talk training tech for three days and nights in Vegas.

Ciao
Dirk
