Okay as far as the Team Skinny challenge.  Do we want to be 1 team and wander around the world and see how far we can go each month or do we want to break into blue and red team?

I say we break into two teams, but that's just because I'm a little competitive

I like 2 teams because I'm a competitive freak motivated by others.

Okey dokey,  I think two teams will be great.  Now where do we start?  England, NZ, west coast, East Coast...Siberia?

i would prefer two teams also. i do better when someone is counting on me. its one thing to let myself down, but to let an other person down, i will do my best not to let that happen.

I've always fancied myself becoming a travel bum and starting in Ireland and working my way east...perhaps finding a cute boy with an accent, but that really has nothing to do with the contest

what if we get each member or certain members to give the area they live in. we begin in one town s/b/r to the next closest, stage one. from there to the next closest, stage two and so on.

so i live in longview washington. i know there is one who lives in portland oregon about 50 miles away or we could run to miss cullens up in canada somewhere. we could start anywhere though, i dont care.

i think we should all end up at enders so after such a long race we could all break into her wine collection and get all liquored up.

I agree with ending up at Enders for a wine gulping  tasting.

Isn't there a google map or something that we can post where we live?  Don't need home address,  just town or area.

Okay Kap,  To answer a couple of your race report things (nerves and clean feet).  Try to learn some yoga type deep breathing,  my favorite is concentrate on blue air in nose red air out (cold/hot get it).  For the feet bring a 5 gallon bucket that will work as a seat as well as carrying stuff and TA DA dump a gallon or so water in it to rinse feet.  I have never read the bucket trick on BT before.

Hardcore workout last night Josh, great job!


Thanx, had another one this morning, and then again later tonight! I saw that dip into the 185's and it kind of inspired me, not to mention my eating habits have probably helped a little.

Hey all you skinnies...

I finished my first tri yesterday. I'll be posting my race report today sometime.

I had 3 basic goals:
1. Finish...check!
2. To not finish last...check!
3. To run across the finish line...check!

I also expected to finish in about 3 hours but, in fact, I finished in 2:34.

I think I overdid it on the celebratory lunch yesterday though. The scale read 221.5 this morning



Still!!!!!!! You did awesome... when's round two??? Does this mean you need to tweak the training and up the anti a little, now that you know you can do it, and maybe we should develop some new goals!!?? Congrats, I'm proud of you.

"The thought of later in the day having to explain to myself why I didn't run that morning is enough to get me out the door."

Hi Everybody, so my first 3 training sessions with the club are done and I don't remember feeling that great about myself in a long time, also I kinda feel like a triathlete. I had the weekend off and was getting ready for today's running session but woke up with a massive migrene- somehow managed to survive work and basically slept through the rest of the day. Hope it's gonna be better tomorrow and I won't miss out on the training session.



Way to work through it... You know when life gets in the way it's always better to adapt, than to completely and utterly, do nothing! Do your best, forget the rest!!!

Dude. It's a long way from Washington to Virginia.

But if you get here, you don't need to break in - I'll let you have it.
