Fred D Mentor Group - Part II (Page 28)

I know you aren't joking.  I laughed when I read the description of dimples.  That said, I did see their high end bib shorts.  The laser cut edges make it really smooth without as much stitching.  How much that will save you in time...I don't know...maybe nothing.  But it definately looks and feels more aero.

Well, it is still true that so long as your skinsuit is wrinkle-free you may wear any helmet you wish.

don't laugh

My buddy is a plastic surgeon. I figured he could make me aero with a little botox and a little lipo could allow me to climb like a shleck.

There are three cardinal rules in surgery.

1. Don't ever get a surgery you don't actually need.

2. Never let a friend operate on you.

3. Under no circumstances should you let anything lick the surgical sites afterward.

I met Faris in Munich. Super cool guy. Dresses for training like he does for racing.

Well I broke rule 2 and 3, but #1 is still good.

Cough cough ... same here. #3 just cannot be overstated.

A friend of mine met Faris up at IM Austria last month.  He had normal pants and a polo shirt on at the post race party (he was actually on their table).  She took a picture with him and I didn't even recognize him.

For you Strava users that like to analyse stuff, there are some cool links to websites in this post on ST

I met him walking out of my hotel. He was running. With the Abu Dhabi top and headband he was hard to miss.

I then later ran into him again at the track and ran with him and a group. Very cool.

Urgent care?

Draw with sharpie where it is red and see if it changes over night.

My wife got that type of infection on her leg a few years ago (probably from a spider bite while working in the garden). Symptoms sound very similar, except she did have a clear insect bite close to the occurance. Hers got a little out of control, but oral antibiotics took care of it. It did not stop her from working out. Like Kathy said, I too am a big fan of sarurday urgent care vs. Sunday emergency room. If it gets worse at all today don't hesitate to go back in for a second op.

for sure see your doc on Monday.

Yech. Well, everyone's given you good advice including the doc lady Melindy so just want to say hope the antibiotics kick in soon and you get some relief.

I agree with her too ... not necessarily suspend all training, but stay off the elbow and ... try. If you're feeling off during the training or it aggravates the sensation in the elbow, dial down or stop.

Holy current, Batman!

But my girls Hillary Biscay and Michelle Mitchell are kicking azz ... Hillary beat most of the guy pros' times in the water but that's normal. Michelle was a couple minutes behind her.

MichMich still needs to get enough points to go to Kona ... she's close but not quite there yet, having had her racing schedule rearranged by a broken hand right before IM Melbourne in March.

In my AG F50-54 every swim split was under an hour!

Rene that is our kind of swim

Strong advantage to those weaker swimmers who lose time on the swim.
