I saw on strava this morning that Jesse Thomas was commenting on the "wavy"ness and hoped it wouldn't be like that Sunday. Here's hoping for your sake that the water is calm.

He's been excited about the bike and also feels really under prepared.

Are we talking about Jesse or Darren

PMSL. Yep, been reading posts on FB all week. Looks like a system is moving in Sunday with 5-6 ft swells and 20 mph winds. I've stopped caring now, I can't do anything about anything. The ball left my hand 30 weeks ago, can't change the direction of it now.
Hey, if everything goes smoothly and according to plan it's not a real adventure.

 

BTW and chance of you getting out to see The World Mountain Running Championship? 

Nope, back in work by then.

It's on the 12th

I don't know anything about the geography of Wales so I don't know how far they are from each-other. I'd totally watch a race as race prep!

Oh you are right, the open championship is on the 19th, masters is on the 12th. And stop yer whining. I see I can donate to DNS for your IM, DNF is taken. How about STFU?

Oh, heck.  I'm so dreadfully far behind, I don't think I'll ever catch up.  I'm going to have to set aside a week just to catch up on RR's!  And yeah yeah, I know, I still need to do one for the tri a couple of weeks ago.  I'm such a slacker.  Things are going absolutely bonkers at work so I haven't had time to come swim much with y'all lately.  I did a quick scan of the last few pages and I think I saw a new Manatee with questionable references jump in (welcome, Laura! ), Stacey suffering in some not-so-comfy shoes, Salty kicking azz, TJ at a boring conference, Darren doing silly last-minute pre-IM strength-sapping activities, and some pretty waterfalls (I don't know whose those were - Erin? Salty?).  Sheesh.  I miss all the fun as you whip through the pages.

Anyway, carry on carrying on.  Just don't go all archive on me before I get back.

But now...oh now, I've been bitten by the bug. I want to do this for real. Right now I'm swimming a lot, riding mostly to the farmer's market on my city bike, and power walking.
Looking forward to getting to know everyone here!

She completed it. No idea of time but found she had to walk part the way back because of crowds. Her daughter looked like she loved it there

Proof of life post.  Start of school is always crazy.  Plus I was home from Denmark for 1 week, then went away again for 4 days.  Unfortunately tweaked my knee getting on to a bike for a fun ride  so can't run right now.

Also, we lost our oldest Staffie on Tuesday.  He was almost 12 and developed symptoms of a brain tumour in the past month or so (in hindsight).  Became weak and wobbly about 10 days ago, I took him for a Neuro consult and they thought it could be a disc in his neck or possibly intracranial.  But over the next 5 days it became very obvious it was brain: circling, getting lost in corners, whining.  So we made the decision to let him go.  RIP Proton "Canadian Champion Araidh Atlantic Starr"  

Welcome to the new podmate.  I hope you aren't scared off yet!

She posted lots of pictures on Facebook.  I know that Eleanor had a great time!  I think that she and Andy did as well.  Jen ran as a princess!

Proof of life post.  Start of school is always crazy.  Plus I was home from Denmark for 1 week, then went away again for 4 days.  Unfortunately tweaked my knee getting on to a bike for a fun ride  so can't run right now.

Also, we lost our oldest Staffie on Tuesday.  He was almost 12 and developed symptoms of a brain tumour in the past month or so (in hindsight).  Became weak and wobbly about 10 days ago, I took him for a Neuro consult and they thought it could be a disc in his neck or possibly intracranial.  But over the next 5 days it became very obvious it was brain: circling, getting lost in corners, whining.  So we made the decision to let him go.  RIP Proton "Canadian Champion Araidh Atlantic Starr"  

Welcome to the new podmate.  I hope you aren't scared off yet!  

I'm very sorry for your loss.  Emma is 13 and has been having some issues.  The vet is trying to make sure that it isn't neurological in nature. :-(  Anyway, your pain is very close to home.

Sorry about your knee.  Fingers crossed that you heal up quickly.

Sorry about Proton, Kirsten.  It is never easy, and words are never enough. A big hug for you both from TW and I.

So, so sorry on the loss of Proton.  It sucks.

And, sorry about your knee. That's no good either!
