I'll give it some thought! A group of us go up Bryson City that week for a "traincation", 2 of us will do the Lake Logan HIM Saturday and the others are thinking about the Oly Sunday. So, if i were to do the bike ride, it would have to be Sunday and after the HIM. So, I don't know whether I will want to do that! But I will think on it as the time get closer. Thanks again! |

| 108 Jacksonville, Florida | Subject: RE: Manatees Originally posted by cdban66 This has nothing to do with races but everything to do with being out in nature -- my wife & I love hiking, particularly mountain hikes. We get out to Colorado as much as we can work into our schedules and then to North Carolina for quicker trips. We did a 14'er in Colorado a couple of years ago and we're hooked. We're now trying to do at least one new 14'er a year for the challenge, but we love less challenging hikes just as much. Training for tri's doubles as training for hikes.Originally posted by cdban66 Okay, now I have a crap ton of follow up questions for a bunch of folks, but that'll have to wait for lunch (and probably tomorrow as well). Thanks everyone, keep it coming! I think the number of non-tri races and racers is interesting. I wonder about motivation and why we do what we do. I know that my joy lately comes from being out in the woods, so mtb and trail running have just been a natural thing for me the past few years. We're adding camping as well. So, for those that are participating outside the average triathlon, would you care to tell what has created this or why you do what you do? Edited by kbhanson3 2018-02-07 2:57 PM |

Member 836 North Augusta, South Carolina | Subject: RE: Manatees - 2018 Edition Now CLOSED Why do I do what I do? My husband will say it's because I'm still in the middle of a mid life crisis. Lol Honestly, I don't particularly love swimming, biking or running. Sometimes I don't even like it. What I do like are challenges & goals. And long course triathlon is definitely a challenge & as I progress, I want to be better. Plus, I like food. Training for these longer distances means I can eat more. ?? |

You can always bring your bike to the race site again on Sunday and ride up to the Parkway. The trick will be timing it so that you don't affect the runners since that is on the run course. Kevin will do that when we are on the HIM bike obviously the HIM bike take a bit longer. |

Originally posted by cdban66 Okay, now I have a crap ton of follow up questions for a bunch of folks, but that'll have to wait for lunch (and probably tomorrow as well). Thanks everyone, keep it coming! I think the number of non-tri races and racers is interesting. I wonder about motivation and why we do what we do.

So, for those that are participating outside the average triathlon, would you care to tell what has created this or why you do what you do? The last Tri I did was in December 2016. It was a sprint and I did not enjoy it at all. It's fair to say that is most likely because a very dear friend and mentor died a couple of days before which was (and still is) tough for me to deal with. He was an extremely fit and healthy runner and he had a stroke. His death has made me question why I bother with trying to be fit and healthy. 2017 was always going to be a run focus because of Dopey 2018 but after that December Tri I pulled the plug on doing the other races that I had planned for that summer and I started to just run. It made me feel close to Barrie because running was his thing. It helped me process my anger and sadness and reduced my stress levels more than swimming and riding seemed to. During 2017 I did a heap of running races with my Mum, E and K and I had a blast at nearly all of them. For the first time I actually had great friends to do races with and I loved it. At the beginning of Dec 2017 almost exactly 1 year after Barrie died I did my first trail event with E. I loved it. It sucked and it nearly killed me but it was amazing. So for the foreseeable future, as long as I have great friends to do events with, I think it will be running for me with a mix of trails and road. (Sorry that got a bit dealer and heavier than I expected) |

It gives me time with friends that I might not otherwise make time for. It gives me a sense of accomplishment. It stops me from wasting my life sitting on the couch. It gives me energy to do other things. It helps in keeping depression at bay. And Stacey, I have thought about your question what's the point in trying to get/stay healthy if healthy people can just die suddenly? For me, the answer is that if it were to happen to me, my friends and family will not have to wonder if I could have done more. I once said that there is so much heart disease in my family, that I should just live and hope for the best. My best friend said why not take action to best.

Master 8249 Eugene, Oregon Bronze member | Subject: RE: Manatees Quite similar to Kirsten. I have been a runner most of my life, not always serious or competitive, but it is just part of me. I did my first race at 10, but was actually running regularly from 7 or 8. (My best friend lived about a mile away, and I would run to/from her house to have more time for play-dates. Back in the day when small town parents let kids do things like that.) Almost like it is hard-wired or something. My life would feel like it was missing something if I couldn't run regularly. Nearly went off the deep end last fall when I couldn't. I love to be outside and running (and biking, and OWS) are basically excuses to do that. (I also really like hiking and bike touring.) Also have always been somewhat of an introvert, despite a pretty social job. I love my job and spending time with small groups of friends, but I also really need that quiet time alone on the road or in the water, and especially out of doors, to keep my sanity. As for the competitive aspect, it's less important to me than many might think. I would still swim/bike/run recreationally even if I was not competitive. I rarely competed from about age 21 to 40, but always considered myself a runner and ran regularly, and swam or biked when I got the chance. After getting back into races and discovering tri, I found I still really enjoy having something that's my own, not connected to job or family responsibilities, that I can work toward goals in and be really good at. Will admit it--as a kid I was a total athletic failure until I discovered distance running; the kind of skinny, clumsy, shy kid that gets social hell in middle and high school. Endurance sports were a venue where that didn't matter, and what I was good at (working hard, laying it all on the line, persistence) did. I still love it for that. I don't do this for health. I'm not willing to sacrifice my health to do well in my sport, but I would continue doing it even if there were few or no health benefits, at least physical ones. It feeds my spirit (and, no doubt, my ego). Edited by Hot Runner 2018-02-07 8:22 PM |

Veteran 2441 Western Australia | Subject: RE: Manatees Originally posted by IronOx Barrie spent his life encouraging people to be fit and active and eat healthily, it truely was who he was. The number of people that spoke at his funeral about the impact he had on their lives because of this was amazing.

He had his first stroke about 6 weeks before he died. He was recovering well with very few ill effects when he died. (They think it was from a stroke, 12 months later the coroner has still not released a death certificate with a cause of death). One of his biggest concerns after his first stroke was that because it had happened all the work that he had done in encouraging people to be healthy would be undone because he had had a stroke. He worried that they would say "whats the point". We spoke about it at some length. i suppose this is why I try to fight those thoughts because I feel that having them is disrespectful to him and his legacy. I just wish he was still here to talk to and get advice from he was such a wise and generous man. I often wonder if he hadn't been so fit and healthy if he would have lived as long and well as he did. I think that if I could sit down and talk with him about doing Dopey or how amazing I feel when I run trails he would have the most amazing smile on his face because I had spent 10+ years telling him that I couldn't run and that I would never be a runner. He would however also be horrified about how fat I have gotten, but that is something that I am working on  |

He sounds like a great man; your description of his smile made me smile. Thank you for sharing him with us. I don't think that we can control the thoughts we have. It's what we do with them (i.e. fighting them) that matters. That is honouring his legacy. |

Master 8249 Eugene, Oregon Bronze member | Subject: RE: Manatees It's also true that his life may have been much shorter, with much more debility, if he had not been so active and led such a healthy lifestyle. Some people are just not dealt a good hand genetically. There are plenty of inherited conditions that can cause blood pressure, or cholesterol, etc. to be elevated despite excellent diet and exercise, and congenital heart conditions (rhythm disorders) that can make someone vulnerable to a stroke or heart attack. I know because this has affected family members. It does, perhaps, highlight the need to get good preventative care and tests, especially as one ages, and not just assume all is well because we're active and feel good. But I think leading a healthy lifestyle and being active, and doing what we love can, in most cases, help people live to the outer edge of what was genetically in the cards for them and, more importantly, help them get the most happiness out of the years they were given. It sounds like he did that. |

Sorry for the loss of your friend, he sounds like he was a very good guy! I'm glad you didn't let your doubts about the benefits of trying to stay healthy stop you from continuing . As you found out, doing these activities with friends and or family have benefits beyond the health ones. I'm also happy you found trail running - it's the best! |

Champion 14677 Bronze member | Subject: RE: Manatees Deep thinky stuff going on here. Why do I do what I do? (The fact that I am doing very little is something to think about. But I will put that off till later). Unlike most people here, I was never an athlete. Ever. I hiked, kayaked, mountain biked some but never ran or anything. Something happened, probably a mid-life crisis. Since I couldn't afford a hot car, I started losing weight and running. At 48 and in a very small town, there was no one to join up with or share the experience. I got encouragement from an on-line group. Someone mentioned triathlon and I guffawed. Then secretly started researching. I discovered this site, I joined a mentor group and did my first sprint that year. I felt like a goddess. I was strong and could do anything. My friends in town thought (still think) I am silly. With all the drama of the last few years with my husband, and injuries to myself. The fact that I can waddle my way through an Oly or a Half marathon makes me smile. so.. That is why I do whatever it is I do.. It makes me smile. |

I will deep think-y with you, as my story is much the same. My family stressed religion and music over sports growing up - so while I did club swim team in the summers as a kid, it was just something fun and not uber competitive. I never played a team sport in my life. So as an adult, when I met someone who was training for a triathlon, I was like huh. All I have to do is get a bike? Sounds fun! And it was. I think for me, the atmosphere of, and my love for races struck a chord early on, and continues to resonate deeply with me. I have SO MUCH FUN out there - and that feeling hasn't changed in the 10 years I've been doing this. |

Does anyone have big plans for the weekend in terms of training, Super Bowl, etc.? I'm beginning to assess what the year has for me(a bit late, I know). I'm currently focusing on running, most specifically trail running. It seems to be going pretty well for me. My goals at this point are pretty minimal, just keep adding and making tiny improvements here and there. I figured the beginning of month 2 seems like as good a time as any other to ask, so here goes:
I hope the week treats you well. Sorry Pod been a little busy lately. Catching up on posts Had a little breast Ca scare with my wife, bx negative! Yeah!. Been focusing on running but have a sprint in March. Goal really just to get faster at running. Would like to run 1:35 HM, and maybe push to BQ in a year or two if I can. Using a training plan from BAA. No coach. Getting faster. Feeling stronger. Doing the 80 day obsession workouts with my wife. Think this helps with my core and some fast twitch. Tri training will be interrupted by a vasectomy likely in March. My urologist has done some tri's said I can't look at a bike for about 6 weeks. So likely nothing else till this summer, but will see. Decided instead of putting off those life long goals I would take a week and hike on the AT (in April), do another week in the fall and see if I can piecemeal that thing by the time I hit 50. Mapped out about 86 miles in TN to VA. Pretty psyched. On the way to NH now to spend some time with my best buddy (son) and go ice fishing. Previously this was a guys trip with friends from high school, its his first year coming with me. Don't know who is more excited. Seize the day! (and don't let go!) |

She absolutely loved the experience. She posted to trail journals, so we were able to keep up with her. So really, it's like I hiked it too Have a great trip with your son!!
