Cheri, I was very sorry your epic night did not work out the way we defined it.  I thought maybe the discussion had jinxed it.  You made a great comeback afterward though.  Hope the Captain got a suitable car.

I think he is getting an Audi 8 in black.

I am wondering if the Captain will remain "on board" as we continue to struggle/work to find a comfortable spot.

OHhhhh maybe he will make me walk the plank? (I would kind of like it Tongue out)

The worst part of any race is the wait and freezing part before you start. Alcatraz was awful, as was the Vegas R&R Mary.

Tony, how sick are you guys? I strained my back in the office move so missed my last run and ride. Boo. AZ is going to have to be based on will power and stubbornness, not fitness for me.

Kido - 2012-10-04 1:50 PM At a technical luncheon. Yay. What is everyone else up to?

Long lunch as the boss is out today.
Put gas in the car, got Japanese takeout, ate it at home, played with my dog, switched over the laundry, ran to Target, then back to work.

Chicago marathon weather is stressing me out. Wind chills at the start will be around 28 degrees. 

Yeah but at mile 22 you'll be nice and cool. Which is way better than being hot and bothered. Wait, no. Better than stifling heat.

I picked up a lightweight base layer today - will probably wear that UNDER my singlet. I guess if I get hot I'll just strip down to my bra and put back on the singlet alone. 

I have these FIRE/FLAME arm warmers that would really match my get-up, but they won't be warm enough for 28 degree wind chills.

We will stop by the TnT booth on Saturday if you're not still sick!

I could now officially stand in zero degree weather and feel overheated at the momment

 

Seriously though I hope it all works out for you.

Well no workouts for us til we're better. We don't wanna push it and make it worse ahead of the long ride this weekend. WE are mostly worried about getting all our long workouts in. Missing a few mid-length rides and runs won't kill us, missing out on the long long rides and runs will. Sucks to miss anything but sometimes it can't be helped.

Hey Jim! 

We've pretty much come to the same realization for IMAZ - I'm going to go with the goal of finishing, and hopefully enjoying it and having fun along the way.

Seriously .. plan on it being in the mid 80's for a high.

Monica, I think you guys are a lot stronger than me. In fact, I fear everyone is. My hopes of matching my 12hr time of last year are dashed. I'm hoping to get to T2 in 7.5 hours and walk the marathon. Oh well. As long as I'm home before midnight! If we find each other on the course maybe you could encourage me to keep up!

I think we've got closer expectations than you think... 

My 3 goals for IMAZ are as follows:

1) don't die

2) finish the race (this is fairly dependent on goal #1)

3) finish the race before midnight with a smile

We'll be fine, just remember to keep moving forward.

Yay!  We're all living in the same make-believe land! 

Jim, we've got a 4.5 hour ride on Saturday (the longest ride we've done so far) and supposed to be doing a 2.25 hour run today that's just not going to happen cuz we're both sick.  As for me, I don't have a membership at a gym (and can't afford one) so that also means no swimming for me until IMAZ as the lake is entirely too cold to not freeze your face and/or limbs even when wearing a full-sleeve wetsuit. 

In terms of IMAZ... As long as I finish, I'm going to be happy with that!

It doesn't matter who beat who .. just that none of you die .. Cord and I don't want that kind of responsibility to deal with. 

Listen lady, if you come to the race, there are certain responsibilities inherent with showing up! Though if I DO die, I'll try not to be messy about it so that will be one less thing. 

Oh wait, my parents will also be there, so they'll probably have to deal with it - so you're off the hook.

A DQ?  Nah, we should be given an extra award just for being able to perform a threesome at the end of an IM.  Wait... is that the kind of threesome you were talking about? 

Yes, my mind is happy in the gutter.
