I'll admit, I don't get it. I'll check back after I Google Costanza.

"Alright, you're aloud one Tracy shot a day.  You've reached your quota. "

Is this everyone?!

You are so far over your quota it's not even funny. (hey, I replied after the last quote and it didn't give me the drop down line.  Don't yell at me, I did it right!!!)

Yes it's Seinfeld, but not a joke at your expense.  George had a shelf installed under his desk for an alarm clock, blanket, etc., so he could nap after lunch. 

I myself have been known to just shut my door and put my feet up for a quick power nap.

I'm signing off for the day. Going home to take a bunch of medicine and go to bed. Best of luck to everyone racing this weekend!

And one side note: this group originally started with a lot more people. If you are still lurking but have been put off by the latest rounds of postings, I sincerely appologize.  I don't want my comments or actions to make anyone feel left out. Please join back in anytime.  I'm sure I speak for everyone in saying we would love to hear how your training is going, what is new in your life, or just your friendly email voice saying hello.  PLEASE COME BACK!!!!

We'll some peoples bosses better not check the web watching software to see how much time you guys were on here today. Glad someone was having fun on a Friday. I am off too for the day now, hope you all have a good weekend and Steve, have a beer (or two) for me.

Oh the life of a father!!!!!!!!

Must be a busy weekend for everyone, this place is a ghost town.

2:02:something.

750M swim took 28 minutes.

LOL, I came very close to quitting, the swim took so much out of me I had nothing left for the rest of the race.  I was 42/50 in AG and 295 out of 350 or so Men.   Really only 46 in the AG finished, I beat 4 of them plus the 4 that quit.

Need to really work on my OWS, I don't have this issue in the pool but it felt like I couldn't keep my body parallel to the surface of the water, it felt like my legs were dragging the whole time.  Plus I didn't have a clue how to really swim around people without wasting a ton of energy.

Found someone that lives in a community with a lake and my wife and I are going to go out and swim with her some for some more experience.

I put this in my race report but it is funny how last week 2nd in AG, this week almost 2nd to last in my AG, The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat...

Though my goal for this race was not to drown and to get some OWS experience which I did. So I guess I did meet my goals.

What a busy weekend for everyone.  Congratulations to Mark, Rob and Tony.  No matter what happened, you were racing and did fantastic!   Mark, EXTREMELY  impressive times - you were smoking!!  Tony, great job on gettting out there and doing that OWS!   Look at it this way, you found a place to do OWSing so that is very cool.  Rob, waiting for the RR.  I'm sure you did great. 

I was fighting a fever this weekend but still managed to get some good training in.  Am I the only one who is noticing this trend with me.... (example) a woman went out with my mostly male riding group and when they pushed her so hard she nearly puked, they felt really bad, yet when I go out with them, they decide to average 20mph on the hilliest course and think your guy's jokes about me are hilarious.   Why do I attract you turkeys?  I swear, you tell one dirty joke and the flood gates are open.   But I guess that's why I love you.

On a serious note, I am very proud of all 3 of you.  Great job!   How is the baby and beautiful Mommy doing Mark? Any new pictures?

Tracey,

Thanks for the kind words, was a pretty humbling day.  Upside is I have until November to get ready for my olympic which isn't much longer than this race so should give me some time to get ready.

Sorry to hear about your fever, and you attract us turkeys because we tease you and you tease us right back, guys love that kind of stuff.

OK, Since Tracy asked and I don't mind sharing, I thought I would add a few new pictures. Baby Nate is getting bigger and definitely doesn't mind eating..

Well, the picture was too big so stay tuned and I will update it when I get a chance
