Expert 1226 Chicago | Subject: RE: June Team 1 Oh...and you forgot a basic food group. COOKIES. I am the official cookie monster of this group. I could eat my way out if I were trapped in a cookie castle. But I am pleased to report, that I love Nutella as well. |

Master 1675 Suwanee, Ga. | Subject: RE: June Team 1 Hi all...as I already know some/most of you I will tell you the truth...and let GPOL, Lyssa, etc. fill in the gaps with the Retired firefighter/paramedic with 3 children and 3 grandchildren. I coach college and high school baseball and now softball as well. Live just N.E. of Atlanta Ga. and have been I come from a recreational running background and my first tri is June 22 (a short sprint of 400 yds./10 mi./2 mi.) and I am in preliminary base building for my first marathon in Jan at Disney. Endurance in the pool is my biggest challenge. You know...we could just cut to the chase and call our team....."The Winning Team" |

But please BEWARE..... make sure if you are drinking coffee, tea, sports drink, margaritas, wine...that you do not attempt to read Steves (aka Reno8) messages until you have swallowed your drink...he is also a very witty and funny person...that can cause spewage - spraying of drinks or whatever you would like to call it - on to your computer from all the funny remarks! this has happened to me more then once! just a little for-warning! |

True that I told you so! However, I was thinking about this today and came up with this: TOTALLY NUTTY TRIATHLETES (a.k.a. TNT) Our motto can be: We're the bomb (or, "we da bomb") OR We're explosive! |

June is a huge month for me as I have my first (and possibly last?!) half iron distance race. So anticipate a lot of freakin' out going on from my parts! I've lived in Germantown, MD, Arlington, Reston and now Sterling, VA. Half iron - that's my next big goal. I just started tri'ing this year and absolutely love it. My first sport is running and I've done the Marine Corps Marathon twice and the Shamrock Marathon (VA Beach) once. I had a baby in between there somewhere! I'm 24 years old (oops...did I say that...I mean 42...) and have a 9 and a 2 year old. BTW, I now have "FAME" stuck in my head for the rest of the day....that doesn't go well with severe allergies (or possibly the flu)...where is the closest toilet... |

I'll let you debate that with your teammates. LOL You're first on the list because you were the first person to sign up AND request a chatty team. Although, you merely requested to be with Julie and Lynne. In my mind though, that translated to "chatty, chatty, chatty." LOL |

Expert 642 | Subject: RE: June Team 1 Ugh! I think I have the flu. I attended a funeral this morning, came home and did a few things online and then went to bed. I've been up occasionally to check my email, etc. (I run a business from home so I have to be on top of things even when I'm sick) but I've pretty much been in bed all day. I guess my body is getting all the yuck out of it this week so I can kick some butt in June! |
