Morning Kate, Morning BFF!

Morning everyone else!

Come do B2B with me!!! 

Dooooo eeeeeet - you know you wanna!!!   

If I could I would soooo sign up for this race!  I am just tooo fluffy and out of shape, and recovering from a slight injury :-

You have to have Martin take you for the cheesy beef bowl!!! 

 

Mon's trying to talk me into the full.  You should doooo eeeeet, tooooo!!

 

LOTS of time to get into enough shape to finish the race.  

Do they have a half?  Going to website now....dammit

Why yes, they DO have a 1/2! 

ETA:  Dang, on top twice in a row today?  Awesome! 

Just looked at that race, looks nice! If I were not doing IMFL in Nov, I would do it! Maybe 2014!

Wait!!! What?!?!?!?!  Yay!!!! If I am not doing a head race that weekend I will be volunteering there again this year!

I'm askeered of salt water swims too. I'd just need to practice a lot to get comfortable with all that salt in my mouth (SHUT IT) and a whole different set of water monsters to worry about.

HIYA TAN!

The monsters.....I can mentally block out for the race but I put a lot of water in my mouth when I swim, and the salt water goes down NOTICEABLY, and makes me gag and sick.

I'm fine with the monsters too, but will need to practice with the salt water thing.  No salt water around Chicago for practicing though!

I will be down there that Tuesday I think. You will not eat by yourself . We have a large group going to this one to sign up for 2014 (Only 2 of us are racing), so there will be lots of drinking going on I am sure *Not me...Maybe...If I do, I will see ya in the tent. I had to go through Ken Glah to get in for this one and we will be at the Laketown Wharf.

Come visit here!  We got salty, brackish, all kinds.  It has never really bothered me...I've done a few races in salty and brackish water.  But I spend a lot of time in the ocean too...

Then again, I've done a race where the swim was in the Thames... I'm pretty sure if I can swim in that (and live) then I can swim in anything.  Ugh, between that and the Serpentine, I don't know which one was worse.

I always admire/am grossed out by people that do the Nation's Tri and swim in the Potomac.  What a gross body of water.  I've also waterskied in the Monongohela, that's pretty gross and full of bodies, supposedly.

I'm askeered of salt water swims too. I'd just need to practice a lot to get comfortable with all that salt in my mouth (SHUT IT) and a whole different set of water monsters to worry about.

HIYA TAN!

The monsters.....I can mentally block out for the race but I put a lot of water in my mouth when I swim, and the salt water goes down NOTICEABLY, and makes me gag and sick. 

I'm fine with the monsters too, but will need to practice with the salt water thing.  No salt water around Chicago for practicing though! 

Come visit here!  We got salty, brackish, all kinds.  It has never really bothered me...I've done a few races in salty and brackish water.  But I spend a lot of time in the ocean too...

I'd love to come visit and swim and drink and visit and drink! 

Then again, I've done a race where the swim was in the Thames... I'm pretty sure if I can swim in that (and live) then I can swim in anything.  Ugh, between that and the Serpentine, I don't know which one was worse.

Are you from London?

Nope, I'm actually Canadian (from Vancouver) but lived in London for about a year and a half starting in 2011... and now live in Chicago.   

Hi Paul, I'm Monica!  Welcome to the dark side of BT... we have cookies. 

Hi Monica!

Ah, I was thinking maybe you were from Scotland and transplanted to England, and somehow ended up in Chicago...Boy was I off . Canada is one of the few places I have never been but want to go to! Maybe one day I will give their IM a try.
