When you are struggling to finish your run in a race and the idiot who won just didn't get enough exercise yet today so they go out and have to blow by you doing their 2nd run for the day. You WON do you have to make everyone out on the course feel like sh*t? Be a gracious winner for goodness sake and have a little respect for the people who are trying to finish the race.

I KNOW!!! The first time I did the 10-mile "Run Thru Hell", my friend and I struggled with the hills. As we were on the last 2 miles or so, a guy came out and was running BACKWARDS ahead of us, talking to some other runners on the course. It just added to the whole "HELL" experience!

That Guy (see previous posts) who complains about how "bad" his race was or how "out of shape" he is when he just kicked your @ss by 10 minutes in a sprint. Get off of it dude, we know you are fast

The fact that I turn 40 this year......the 40-44 AG is the absolute brutal monster If I want to ever podium, I'm going to have to live to be racing at 90

People who wear wetsuits in 80 degree water.... I mean come on people, learn to freaking swim would you.

That's my strategy---if I compete long enough, maybe I'll finally get first in my age group!

In my heavy days, I bought a very expensive suit. IT was my go to suit when I had a meeting with an important client and the confidence it gave me helped me close the deals. Now to replace it would cost me about what a new bike would cost, and they could darn near build a tent with what they'd have to take out at a tailor. So here I sit in my office, in a pair of shorts that are too big, and a pair of flip flops. So yes, not having clothes that fit is an issue!!!!!

Good Luck,
Jay

How old is Lance? (Have read he's a former tri guy) I'm 36 and have this recurring nightmare that I improve just as he and I are in the same age group. And he always parks his bike right next to mine!

Good Luck,
Jay
