Champion  10550    Austin, Texas |  Subject: RE: Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes)Originally posted by jmkizer Catch up posting. Still trying to get my head above water so-to-speak. Erin: They offer pickle juice at some century rides here. I have never tried it myself though. Sorry about your crazy Friday but glad that you got pictures of the kiddo with the dogs. Good work on that long bike ride over the weekend! LOL! Of course I rocked the wellies - now if I could just find a way to make them shiny and sparkly... I'm now coveting a Betty bathingsuit... this could be bad for Tony's wallet. |

I'm trying to pack up to leave Bali (and you all know how I am about packing) EXCEPT this is the last time I'll be in Bali before I leave for Japan (out of Jakarta). So I'm sure I'm leaving something important behind/undone/etc. I got a few friends in Japan these days through Macca - you need anything while you're there let me know and we'll network you out of the crisis. {MELON PRESS} Japan's the one place I've got no tri friends. OWS friends, yes, other friends, yes, but nobody who'd be keyed in on where to get a bike part or something like that. a PRO, james Hodge got there for the half and both his tires had exploded - one of the Macca tribe got him new stuff in time for the race. Anyway you haven't forgotten anything and you are going to be an IM. for shizzle. WOOT!!! Yanti's gonna ROCK IM Japan!! |

This just can't be right. A whole hour???? I'm sure I can speak for the rest of the Pod when I say NO FACHING WAY!!! Good luck, Miss Yanti! |

Champion 10550 Austin, Texas | Subject: RE: Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes) Okay... Chris has put a bit of a bug in my ear about applying to be a "Betty" for the Betty Designs site - and I kinda want to do it, cuz how else will I ever know if I can be a Betty or not? My big concern is that I really don't have a "social media" presence - I don't have a blog and I'm not on Twitter or Tumblr or anything, but I AM on here... a LOT (don't tell my bosses). Do you think that will suffice? Here's the link to the page with the application details: http://www.bettydesigns.com/pages/are-you-a-betty |

Melon Presser 52116 | Subject: RE: Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes) I feel like I have some important news to share ... durrrrrr travel coma ... oh yeah! The King Man is moving in in March. If we haven't dental-flossed each other by April, including on a long Third-world style road trip out to the prawn farms (YES I REALLY AM A SHRIMP FARMER), we'll probably get hitched. |

Melon Presser 52116 | Subject: RE: Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes) SWITCHY -- sorry, I have not heard of those wheels. Also, Sheila does not require fly, although she (like me, for that matter, and an awful lot of really good coaches) strongly recommends TRYING. You can do other strokes or modifications or alternate drills that she suggests. Bottom line is that looking at a marathon-type plan for running, which frankly is awfully close to the type of distance and frequency over time that anyone wanting to really get good at any endurance running, needs to do, it looks like a LOT. Same is true for swimming, and thus Sheila’s Swim Speed Workouts. |

Veteran 940 Citrus Heights, CA | Subject: RE: Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes) I am betting that I will not make it out to NC in September after all. Boo on that. I just don't have the $$$ and the zoo doesn't seem to have the funds nor care enough to send me. Oh well, guess I'll have to write another article that will get me a bigger award down the road. So this weekend I am taking part in the Spartan Beast in Beautiful Monterey....and then I am going caving/spelunking the next day...cause I am a little bit crazy. |
Super exciting though! A friend has set up the trip to help raise money for cancer research, e provides the gear (and expertise) and I pay $25 and play in a cave; simple, right? Oh, apparently there is some 400 foot rappelling involved plus a big ol' swimmin' hole involved...so, climbing, rappelling, swimming...fun! (| 2013-08-06 11:29 AM in reply to: TriAya |

There are definitely some things that I can try to win them over with, and if nothing else, maybe they'll like the fact that I also have a skull on the back of my motorcycle jacket! |
