OK, I'll ask... What's a Brettathon?

Brettathlon is my word for a double brick workout.   All three disciplines as if it were a race!   Hence Brettathlon.

I did a Brettathlon in May,  I won my age group and overall, but the crazy RD didn't even have any medals for the OVERALL WINNER!!  (I tried to have a conference with the RD, but he was too busy!  )

Well, had a STINKY workout this morning.  Legs just DIDN'T want to work.  It wasn't pretty!

On a positive note, I was just looking at my logs from last year (entire year) vs this year (YTD)   I'm ahead of last year in ALL Categories!  (GO ME!)

Amazing what a little training will do.   Challenges help in that department to keep one on track. 

Now if I could only lose the 40 plus pounds I want to lose, all would be good!

GO Gecko's!!

Announcing the May 2008 Brettathlon Competition Results: FIRST PLACE is hereby awarded to UTTriman! And here is your trophy:

Bowing Humbly! 

(I'm touched!  )

THanks for the trophy-- The RD here is a really tough character-- and about 40 lbs overweight!  

Thanks!   That's what I'da thought-- Hasn't happened yet.  Last time I was training seriously I dropped 34 lbs in 6 months -- now -- 3 lbs in 8 months --- UGH!

It'll kick in one of these days!

But thanks again!
