I have a couple of buddies that did the bourbon chase last year. Logistically I have been unable. I'm hoping to change that in the very near future. I'm planning for my first 50 miler (solo) in February. Which 50 miler? Been thinking of putting a team together for Madison - Chicago Ragnar. maybe a 2014 event. I grew up in KY so the Bourbon Chase sounds cool. the Trans-Rockies just sounds like an awesome experience. You and a partner doing about 20 miles a day in the Rockies. Good food and drink at night. Camping. What's not to love. Destin Beach 50 miler. Florida in February sounded a lot better than northern Ohio in February(race there was my second choice). I REALLY want to do the Bourbon Chase at some point. If you want to seriously get a team together, I'd be willing to help organize and participate in either of those. Okay - first I have to get healthy and I really need my 2 year old to get older. That's why I'm targeting 2014. My Admiral would be more likely to support a 2014 event over a 2013 - big difference in a 3 year old versus 4 year old. Would love to be able to complete my first HIM next fall (Tawas?) |

Expert 1544   Alexandria, MN | Subject: RE: Ernesto's group (4th season) - Closed Just adding in last couple days' workouts, although during this week's taper I'm not sure they can really be called "workouts", more like brief intervals to get the heart rate going and blood pumping.

You know any time you say Tawas, I will take the bait. We are revving up for it, it is just two weeks away. We are changing the transition area from when Scott did it. It is all going to be on Newman st, which is the main street downtown and the set up is ITU style. Also the road for the bike route is going to be all new for 2013 event. There is a major road project starting the week after the tri this year, and it will include all new surfaces for the entire bike route and a 3 ft paved shoulder. The head of the road commission is a bike enthusiast so he pushed to make it more bike friendly. I am assuming I will still be the city's liason for the event next year, so I am always looking for new ideas. |

Already prepping my admiral for this race and think I may recruit my good friend to get back into tri's. New road surface sounds dreamy! So 2013 a Tawas HIM. 2014 - Bourbon chase. 2015 - Transrockies. Jim - are you interested in bourbon chase in 2014...know it's forever away, but no time like the present o plan. |

Expert 1544 Alexandria, MN | Subject: RE: Ernesto's group (4th season) - Closed My runs this week, 3-4 miles long at about my anticipated race pace, have all felt effortless. Is that how things ought to feel while tapering for my race Sunday? I'm getting excited and looking forward to hitting it! I don't think they have online tracking or anything, the race is called SuperiorMan and is out of Duluth, MN. Swimming in a protected bay of Lake Superior, then biking up the north shore and back and a 3 lap run around the docks where all the big iron ore ships come and go. |

Expert 1480 Somewhere in the Swamps of Philly | Subject: RE: Ernesto's group (4th season) - Closed 67' run this morning 8M @ MP. Today was a scheduled day of rest, but we are leaving for vacation tomorrow at 7:30 and with a 5+ hr car ride I knew the odds would be against. Plenty of running left this month and trying to stay healthy. E, with a week at the lake house, I will work in those missing recovery swims (not sure about the trails yet). Andy - Good luck with that HIM and don't let the taper madness get to you. Everyone else racing (Barry?) best of luck to you as well. Andy S 10/B 11/ R 13 Rest 2 Total 34 Time 38:12:20 95% |

I'm excited that I might actually be getting better. Keep stressing with myself that its a proverbial marathon and I need to keep going slow for quite awhile longer.

Expert 1544 Alexandria, MN | Subject: RE: Ernesto's group (4th season) - Closed Thanks for the good lucks. We arrived in Duluth a couple hours ago after an awful battle with road construction everywhere we turned! I'm using this as a testament to arriving plenty early, I'm going to need all day tomorrow to decompress from the drive. Kids hit the pool and I had a chance to go for a quick ride to dial in the shifting with the race wheels. I have shimano cassette on both rear wheels but I always need to go 2-3 turns on the rear dérailleur when I swap wheels. I'm hoping for a practice swim tomorrow to test out the water temps, we'll see if I have time. |

| Maple Grove, MN | Subject: RE: Ernesto's group (4th season) - Closed Rest on Wednesday. 4 mile run yesterday. It was supposed to be 10 (2 miles easy, 6 at marathon pace, 2 miles easy), but I crapped out after the first pace mile, then took it easy to get back to my son's football practice where I started. The problem was 1) it was about 90 with near 100% humidity, 2) I was so rushed to get home from work and get my son to practice I didn't have any water and 3) I was starving. All just a bad combination. I have to get my butt out of bed in the morning and run before work. Today it was still hot and humid. Did 4 miles, first two to packet pickup for my sprint and then 2 more home.
