Expert 1207 Liberty Lake, WA | Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official Thread Tobin Smith and I’m racing with bib number 1081 this year. I’m not sure what to think about it. A quick history of this bib number shows that in the 7 year history of this race bib number 1081 has finished six times but in 2006 bib 1081 had to take a DNF. While I should not judge my bib number by one mistake 4 years ago it does suggest a pattern of only being able to finish 3 out of every 4 years. Unfortunately, this is the 4th year. Another area of concern is 1081’s finishing times. For the last three years there has been a steady pattern of this number getting slower and slower. On the bright side the average finishing time for 1081 has been a 12:08, I could be happy with a 12:08. I know the math geeks will point out that 1081 is a triangular number. Triangles have three sides and triathlons have three events so I’m assuming that make 1081 a good tri bib number The history buffs will point out the Louis VI of France was born in 1081. But seeing as I’m not a history buff, especially French history, I have no clue if this is a good thing or a bad thing. Also, Boleslaw II the Bold, King of Poland died in 1081 at the age of 41. I know as much about Polish history as I do french history, but my racing age this year is 41 so I’m leaning towards this not being a good sign. Police code 10-81 is used to communicate that an officer will be at a given station. I’m not sure how this relates to my bib number but its better that being bib number 10-51 (dead body) or 11-26 (abandoned bicycle). (This is so much better than worrying about water temperature) |

Expert 1207 Liberty Lake, WA | Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official Thread Selachophobia - 2010-06-15 3:31 PM So what is the history of 982..... Not good, not good at all. IRS Form 982 is used to avoid having to claim debt forgivness as income. This is generally filed by people that are on the brink of going bankrupt or had to sell their home at a loss. |

Not good, not good at all. IRS Form 982 is used to avoid having to claim debt forgivness as income. This is generally filed by people that are on the brink of going bankrupt or had to sell their home at a loss. Hmmm... In other words, the 982 form is generally filed by those that have a P4 and do Ironman events. This is all starting to make some sense!  |

Master 1472 | Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official Thread #1027... Not sure how excited I am with that number. Just doesn't have any ring to it. 2009... doesn't seem to have existed 2008... 13:19 2007... DNF 2006... 12:19 2005... 11:33 2004... 13:27 2003... DNF Looks like it will be a bit of a let down this year for bib #1027. Goal is to finish with this under-trained body of mine. Edited by idahodan 2010-06-15 6:46 PM |

Just doesn't have any ring to it. 1027 is great if you write it in terms of finishing time.... 10:27. How about that? I'd take 10:27 right now. Although, my 224 I can't rearrange to look like that. Maybe that will be my marathon time?? Haha... I'm getting really stoked now. Better run to the store and get some ice cream, donuts and snickers bars... |
