But I'd need to hang onto a car during the bike. And then I'd need roller skates with a tow line to the car for the run. Donto - 2007-12-12 6:09 PM spokes - 2007-12-12 7:03 PM Speaking of 'finding yourself' in this pursuit of endurance sports, I'm beginning to think more and more than I may just do 'part' of a tri as a relay team each year (there's always someone who can swim) and mix century rides with run races and that's who I am. Duathlons are going to be won always by people who can run like the wind. I can't. So what's the point of banging your head against the wall? Hey Spokes, I think you've finally convinced yourself of something! I don't care how slow I swim, I'll do tri's until I can't do any of the individual sports. Word Donto! My first open water swim, I hung out and chatted with one of the lifeguards while I was hanging on the float waiting to catch my breath. NOTHING can be more humiliating than that. But we just keep on keeping on... ![]() Who did you get as your mentor? medic? want me to have a word about getting you going for an Oly in June? LOL Go ahead. ![]() Alright, Dee! You rock! |

That's what makes this sport great! Thanks for sharing, Sal. Well, I'm going to bed early tonight. Gonna rest my shoulder. Post-padding seems to be good therapy for it though, cuz it feels better. Night night, Nibbins. Sal, I love your story! I agree with Cat, it's very motivational - I bet that will be one you share with your mentees! on another note, how in the heck did we get to page 37 so fast?
Nighty Night Pam!! MWAH! |
