You have a point. I really wanted to go swimming this evening. But I'm exhausted! I decided to just come home and eat... and eat... and then eat some more. Later on, after I consume a good 52,467 calories or so, I'll probably do some biking. (The bike may collapse under my weight by then, but....) Evil Dee |

Eat, sleep, eat, sleep, rest, enjoy - you've earned it.................. who's the evil one now? hehe Hehe. I think we're both equally evil. But I *am* feeling much better after my 52,467 calories. Unfortunately, the pool is now swamped with swim team kiddies and aqua-aerobics classes. So my swim will have to wait until tomrrow. But listen! Can you hear that? It's the bike - and it's calling my name. Dee |

Champion 23360 Taser-World | Subject: RE: September - Swim and Bike challenge for Fall Tri's The Challenge within the Challenge: Since Donto is accepting up to 120% of our challenge goals, we can actually EXCEED our goals. (Thereby helping our team to VICTORY.) So the Challenge within the Challenge is to not just meet your goals, but to exceed them! Think about that, guys! Well, only the EAST TEAM should think about it. The other teams should just go eat a few cookies, take a nappie, and so on. Am I evil again? Well, I did have a few cookies. But only after I swam.

Are you calling LastCall a Twinky? (Or is it spelled Twinkie? Who knows. The last time I had one, I think I was 6.) However, if we make it plural, the spelling issue is solved. So summing it all up: CENTRAL TEAM = HOME OF THE TWINKIES! Here you go, Last. Here's a whole box of Twinkies for ya. Enjoy 'em while sitting on the couch watching TV. Evil Dee |

Must have been your 44 degree bike ride. I think it gave you brain freeze.... Or did you sneak in some ice cream along side of your Twinkies? Ummm, Twinkies a la mode! (As if I should talk. I went and watched part of a Tri this morning. No, I didn't participate. I watched. It was impressive. Lots of people going really fast.... But that still means I've done nothing towards this Challenge yet today.) Dee |

LOL No, evil one! I had real grown up food - just lots of it! LOL No twinkies for me - do they even make them anymore? Yes, Grasshopper - you are the evil one in training - LOLOL That's ok if you just watched the tri - I'm sure you are now very sleepy and ready for a nice long nap - don't let it worry you that I'm headed out for another ride - you really need the rest............... |

Ok, so I need to set a new biking goal. I really didn't anticipate getting the extra rides in, so let's see. Need to think about it - I'll post a new goal a little later

This was the first Tri I ever saw in person. Yeah, I'm a newbie. We established that a long time ago. I got there after the swim, but watched the bike and run. Was impressed by a) the speed of everyone, b) the expensive bikes, c) the absolute lack of body fat on all the competitors. And then this afternoon, I swam AND biked. (Light on the bike, but I had a good swim.) I am shooting for the 120%, you know. Dee |

Champion 23360 Taser-World | Subject: RE: September - Swim and Bike challenge for Fall Tri's Question about posting our stats: Do we post just this one week's results? (Sept 10-16) Or is it the cumulative results? (Sept 1-16) Thanks! Dee |

Champion 23360 Taser-World | Subject: RE: September - Swim and Bike challenge for Fall Tri's Hm, I'm answering my own question. From Donto's Worksheet, it looks like we're submitting cumulative totals. So here are mine: ----------------------------------- My September numbers: Bike: 111.85 Mi Swim: 14,650 Yd ----------------------------------- That puts me at: Bike: 60% Swim: 61% Woohoo. I'm slightly ahead of schedule. Looks like LastCall has been motivating me. And we're not even teammates. LOL My arms and legs are about to fall off. But it's worth it. GO EAST TEAM! Dee |

Expert 1023 Ft Gordon, GA | Subject: RE: September - Swim and Bike challenge for Fall Tri's Through the 17th: September's totals: Bike: 15h 17m 22s - 254.83 Mi Run: 1h 00m - 7 Mi I am REALLY liking this month as I am restricted form swimming (maybe a little too much). My numbers will go down now as my wife had to head back to the States for 10 days and I am the sole provider for the three older kiddo's (6, 4.5 and 3 year olds) while she's gone. Still, I am very on track (72%) complete! If I am still able to get out a bit I will revise my goals soon. Buck Go TEAM ROW!!! |
