sesh - 2008-07-21 10:22 PM Potentially good rumor from Jackson, MS. The local triathlon group, which until now has just been an email group and not much else is having a meeting on Thursday. Word on the street is they are about the ramp this thing up into a full blown tri club with officers, training groups, etc. The hush hush rumor, that I'm of course going to blab about on Nibbs, is that they are looking at making a strong push to host a HIM here . I mean, we've already got two half marathons, an Oly Tri, and two century rides that do very well, so why not this next step? Maybe it'll give me an avenue to organize the three mile swim I'm wanting to start!!

That's exciting! Richmond has a great tri club. Nice to have group workouts.

Three mile swim is daunting. I don't think I could handle that.

We've got quite a few Ironman finishers in the area, and a couple of good youth swim teams and master programs, so I think it might fly. I'd love to have one since there really isn't a good long distance swim even anywhere close.

There's a two mile in Charlottesville (about an hour away) and a four mile in Baltimore.  I'd like to work up to the two mile next year.

A girl in the mentor group I was in this year did the Chesapeake Bay swim and it definitely got me really interested in the distance swimming events.

Aren't they doing a 10k open water swim in the Olympics this year?

Hes cold and makes great fudge?

And has vodka in his bottles.

Yep.  I can't wait to see that. 

I hope they actually show it.  It seems all the cool sports I want to see get a back seat.  I REALLY hope they show the track cycling.  I need to see more Cavendish!  And so does Cat

Boys on bikes...mmm... how on earth would you figure out I need more of that???

Dirty minds think alike  Now where are my swimming hotties?

True.  I think they'll end up streaming more to the web this year, so hopefully I'll be able to watch it then.

Cycling will be fun.  I want to watch the TT and Dave Z. 

I hope he's fully recovered and in top form for it. I wonder if he'll still have the stache as well.

You're such a giver, Cat Vanderkitten

I should repay your kindness:

Hope he is recovered, although I'm not sure they would have let him on if he wasn't.  The stache has definitely grown on me.

Hottie cop lady should borrow your fishnets
