SWBKRUN fast, furious, and closed (Page 161)

ok dino.  here you go.  sorry i've been very busy.    ha!!!!!

Ha is right, you trying to convince us your busy?  Even without any IM training?  .....

i don't think we can equate wetsuits to disc wheels.  we see two peeps up here already saying they'll walk if MOO isn't legal.  (please don't tell em i said this but i think both of em are full of it because both of them are will rock 2.4 with or without a wetsuit) 

rules, if its a usat race then the rd's don't make the rules.  check out section 1.4 in the usat rules.  and btw if you do ever have a question you can't get answered about their rules, give the head honcho over at usat a call.  charlie's number is on the site or i have his cell if you need it. 

Agreed ...... especially the part about Minnow and KT## kicking the cr4p outta MOO.  Can't wait to see them before the swim and cheer them on the course!  

how do we make it safer, dunno.  forums like this mg are a great place to start, when new folks come around and ask questions we can hopefully help them make a safe(er) decision.

This is really the question!  Wave starts? 

i think we're agreeing on a lot here.  i just want to see you go sans wetsuit and beat up all the dudes wearing wetsuits.  that would make me smile. 

We will see what the weekend brings!  Going by the rules 4 sure.  The RD pushes for and gets a lot of 1st timers at this race, so they may do the Block of Ice on the end of the line with themometer trick!  

and the most important thing is getting lost in all of this, that'll teach you to bust out the john daly questions on me!!!!   you're rockin' this for jeff.  AWESOME!!!!!!!!

Just for you, and from your favorite reference source.....

Thanks to Wikipedia, I now know what you're talking about. Wikipedia, John!

oh man, i'd hate to see wave starts at ironman.  that was such an awesome part of the race.  and heck yeah it was kinda scary and the nerves were through the roof.  but its all good because you get busy living... 

jeff's newsweek article from 1995 here.

Hi all! Congrats to all the racers I've missed and good luck to anyone racing tomorrow! Sorry I've been gone for awhile. My youngest daughter, son-in-law, and baby grandson were up from Louisiana for a visit, so I've been a bit preoccupied. :-)

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Ugg. Cut my ride short today at 100k.

Been riding for 3-4 years now. Had never had a flat until last week at camp. Had flat while riding, and then a slow leak overnight. Both on back tire.

Today, out riding. Flat on the back 10k into ride. Then, 80k flat on the front. Decided to call it the ride. Ran out of tubes, and Co2. Tires are getting a bit worn, and since its 4 weeks off from the race, heading the LBS for tubes,co2, tires, and new brake pads. Pads seem to wear out quick.

Hope I'm getting all the bad flat mojo out of my system now.
