SWBKRUN- Miles and Miles ahead!!!! CLOSED (Page 203)

But imagine how good they would look if you wore capri pants like Steve!

I worked in hospitals for years as a psychologist. Spent a lot of time in ERs and ICUs. Not exactly "medically" trained, but I did learn a few things while there. I could be totally off-base, but a lot of the time the Drs. will keep the patient in a medically induced coma if the pain level the patient experiences is too much for them to handle when awake, such as a burn patient. They will also induce coma when there's swelling in the brain to relieve pressure and prevent brain damage. It's almost always used when they put someone on the ventilator....but in this guy's case they said he was breathing on his own, so it's obviously not that. Dunno...might ask your nurse friend if she would know. Sounds like the guy either stroked-out, had a horrible, life threatening seizure, or had a brain aneurism. 

The first time I witnessed someone having to be defibbed it really freaked me out. It's a very violent looking procedure and frankly between the defib and the CPR it looks like the patient is being assaulted.  It took me a while to get over it initially, so no surprise that you're traumatized. I got used to it after a while, but it's never pretty. Sorry you had to witness it, especially when you were out having fun doing what you love. The memory will fade with time.... Big hugs to you!

LOL! (I know it's been a couple days since I read the forums...homework takes priority and training take second. BT takes third. I think I got the priorities straight, sorry for the late reply).

Oh there is definitely a battle over razors and shaving gel in our house.  Tony keeps using up my Trader Joe's Mango shaving gel in the shower.  Bast*rd!

Of course John, it has nothing to do w/ speed.  If you spend several weeks ripping hair out of your leg that is stick to bandages from road rash, you might shave your legs too!

Yeah, unfortunately they don't make guy looking leg shaving razors. 

ummmmm.  why do you think that is?   hints.  becasue guys shouldn't be shaving their legs.  lol!

got my rei dividend and 20% off soupon this morning.   puts the wired pt at 550.  

I have officially closed the door on my "not training for anything" excuse.  Just registered for an Olympic that is in 10 WEEKS!   Guess momma better get her butt moving!!!!  Currently I can do the distance in the pool, but the time is deplorable, I'll make the 25 miles but the idea of running a 10k off the bike is daunting right now.  But this will be the first time I get to race the new Equinox!!!!!    Very excited!

Hey hey.... Don't knock em' till you try em...

Well laying the bike down was the original reason (see my album 1st wreck...)

But now it just looks cool.

Also, you wouldn't believe how much easier it is now to put sunscreen on.

Give yourself the treat of doing some bricks in the next few weekends.  You'll be fine.  This race will be great for you.  You will be pulling everything out from past experiences to help you succeed!

Instead of showing you and the wife in black and white with you wearing capris....you should post the pic of you in color with the khaki colred capris...that pic totally brings out your eyes.
I've said to much.

the best part about this pic isn't that he asked kim to roll up her jeans, it that he had her switch beers so he wasn't caught hold a coor light.

oh good.  maybe you won't be getting beat by and hour and a half in augusta now.  just an an hour and 25 minutes. 

get going momma!  good job!!!

Dude I love when the mountains are blue!! If you noticed (which I am surprised you didn't...Check the reserve in the pocket. I got my can in there!)

So is that what the buldge in the pocket is? 

Keep talking big boy.  And you know what, even if you do beat me I'll always look better in my speedos than you do in yours.

fixed that for ya

Birdy:  to the degree none of us appreciated it before, you are TRULY hardcore.  From your post, the title of this pic is "Cabin", which appears to refer to the loose collection of sticks/lean-to on the right side of the picture. 

I know you love to hike in the snow up Mt. Hood, etc.   But, if you treat that collection of sticks as your "cabin", all I can say is that, MAN, I am impressed.

If my legs would look even CLOSE TO Dean Karnazes then I am going to keep them shaved

Eeeeww, I think that is nastier than John's hairy legs.  He looks like he is about to pop.  I'll bet you could see the blood pulsing through his veins when he walks.
