ebshot - 2009-06-18 6:09 AM My bike is in the shop and I hope to get it back today.  I brought it in for them to run through the gears and such.  My dude calls last night and says, "ummmm, you need a new chain.  yours is too short and that is why you can't use granny gear."  WHAT???  I brought it in a few weeks ago for them to tweak the front derailleur and some other dude took out a link of my chain.  Now its too short?  Ugh.  As long as everything is in good working order, I don't care but yikes, nothing like cutting it close!


Hope they get everything taken care of you.  I'd be a little nervous having 2 different mechanics telling me 2 different things.  Make sure you take it for a good test ride when you get it back!

Good question.  Sounds like a good day to call in sick


Wish I could but I am busy lately And I am working Saturday. This should be an interesting day, up early, a triathlon, then rush to the office because everyone is waiting on me

Excited, nervous, dread.  I have a lot of emotions about this.  I have always said that the race is icing on the cake.  It is all about the journey for me.  For those of you who know me, 2009 has been a very challenging year for me.  I have had a lot of crap to deal with and training has gotten me through it while remaining somewhat sane!  Saturday will be seeing all of the trials and tribulations, the good time and the awful ones fade into the past and a new day will dawn.  It will be a good day.  An emotional day.

rlejeune - 2009-06-18 7:50 AM WOW weather is simply gorgeous. 

Hello team,

Same thing here, a sunny blue sky, light breeze. I will probably run at lunch hour. Can't swim this week, the pool is closed for maintenance....

To all of you that are racing this weekend, have fun and enjoy the moment. If it hurts, think of how good it will feel when you stop at the finish line.....

Had to scrap the lunch swim today due to work.  Tried to get to it this evening, no go because of work again.  I will try again in the morning....



Hope you're swimming this morning!

Nope...  Gonna sneak out at lunch today instead of yesterday...

Bonjour Robert,
I was able to run a little bit more this week because of the pool closure so I increased my goal to 120K.

Quick question, I am currently looking at a race wheelset. Does anyone here has or know someone who has a SRAM wheelset?  If so any feedback would be appreciated

LazyMarathoner - 2009-06-18 12:56 AM Hey team, I didn't die but have basically dropped off the face of the earth. Dee, thanks for checking in with the inspires! I haven't had any BT time the past few days, work is insane and I'm getting ready to leave town for more training, this time in WI on the actual course! But I'm still running and I'll update the spreadsheet each time. My focus in the next ten days is the bike and swim so my run volume may be a tad low.


Hey K Nice to see you! I read your blog about your training in Lake Placid, that sounds awesome.

Good luck with HHH this week end  


thanks! at the very least it will be an interesting ride!
