kim / andy... kathyg's jet fuel.  http://try3sports.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html    she (and lots of others) have used it from sprints to IM.   i'm still playing with it but yesterdays ride worked well.  we'll see.  lots cheaper than other mixes that are 96+% maltodextrin.   if you or anyone needs info on where to buy lemme know.   again, still trying it out...we'll see.



Confused by John John's link???? me too.....scroll down to the nutrition section to see what he's talking about....apparently he is too busy with five hookers to tell you himself....dont feel sorry for Jarret though....she is videotaping the whole thing .

SAME!! Had to re-post the pictures just for the good Dead juju.

WE ARE HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Kiddos are in the pool and I'm chillin' on the wireless while making sure they breathe every few minutes... just finished up dinner OUTSIDE IN A TANK TOP WHILE NOT FREEZING!!!!! It's downright balmy here! It was, like, 80 today!! Holy mackeral!! Rode my bike about 45 minutes into town (also in a tank top! wow!!) and by the setup of everything -- ran into the kid's race, as a matter of fact (No, did not take down any kids). I LOVE that I was here earlier this season for camp, as when I rode into town I knew exactly where I was on the bike and run course. I also got some good looks from others, so I know my bike and wheels look hot. And that matters, right? Passed some amazingly built woman on the bike trail, I'm sure she was a pro. Did not see Bree Wee but am keeping my eyes open for her. Tonight is all about chillin' -- wear out the kids in the pool then turn 'em loose in front of a movie and do the same with the hubster. Tomorrow I'll swim in the lake (which is said to be 60!) with the BT crew, check in, check out the scene, hit a team party/dinner offsite, then hit the athlete's meeting.

The energy and vibe is soooooo cool!!! It is amazing to be surrounded by like-minded peeps after spending so many lonely hours on the road all by myself, seeing people every day who have no clue what it is I'm really doing, etc. Every person in this hotel is an IM or aspiring IM and it rocks.

LIFE IS GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey folks!  Been AWOL the last couple of days.  Traveled with the family to Boston yesterday.  We are here until Sunday.  Had lots of fun so far and looking forward to some more the next few days!  With any luck, I will get a run in along the Charles River tomorrow morning.


Race report from last weekend's duathlon is finally up.

Haven't caught up on all the threads but good luck to anyone who is racing this weekend.  Especially our Ironmen (IRONWOMEN!!)  This is what all your hard work has led to.  Enjoy the day that you have earned for yourself!  Can't wait to hear about it!

Good Friday and great weekend to all of you.

I think what John is trying to say is that if its something you want to do, DO IT!!!!
We all have busy, busy lives with little kids, or lots of travel, or businesses to run.
If its what you really want, you can make it work. If you only view it as a 'fix' and not a 'lifestyle' there will allows be roadblocks.

SSMinnow - 2010-06-23 6:12 AM  Cheeleader Jump WOW, I am beyond excited today.....I know we have a lot of people racing this weekend. Raise those hands and tell us your plans!!!!

For those of us not racing, reflect back on your last race or even the early season and give us your  biggest learning so far!  It might help others in the MG!




linda (havin'fun) is racing sunday.  a repeat of her first tri a few years ago.  her parents were there.  heard from her last night, her father was just diagnosed with prostate cancer.  we all know it. cancer sucks. 

if you get a chance stop by her logs and wish her well.  and please keep them all in your thoughts and prayers.

thanks gang.

Wow, I never thought I would say this, but I am so glad to be back at work!   My brain is completely fried.  Thanks to the inspires you guys sent me.    After this week of professional work training  I think doing an IM today would be easier.  I still have to take the exam but that will come later.  

Someone take pitty on me and give the readers digest version of what I've missed this week.
