LOL, no bound up--lungs need to keep expanding well and the rib and tissues to heal correctly in place. I did just have breakfast with an ER doctor and stayed at a much nicer place than Holiday Inn Express last night

I'm pulling out all the stops to try and get a spot for IM Melbourne in 3 weeks.

Wow, although it's not entirely surprising.  Wish you the very best and a very speedy, complete recovery!! GO YANTI!!

HAHAHA nah, he's the guy who posted the "when to drop out of a race" thread in Tri Talk. The studio suite at a lodge place my sister and I have is THE BOMB! Ensuite mineral plunge pool--full kitchen--lakefront location/view--incredible.

Oh no, all that would be normal--I think this wonderful local piglet has fallen in love with my sister and I. We were sad that you can't just have the legendary lake trout here--you have to catch it yourself and then places will cook or smoke it for you. He showed up at our door with a Manuka-honey smoked trout that he had caught and smoked himself--probably the best thing I've ever eaten in my life. Incredible. He offered to take us out on his boat this afternoon to show us 'round and so we are staying a bit longer in Taupo than expected

Melbourne makes sense. It's as expensive as all fork, but--I'm flying back through there anyway, I'm in peak Ironman shape, it's a great course, I have so many friends there I can stay with/sherpa ... a lot less expensive than taking a whole 'nother trip and going through yet another round of Ironman training when anything can happen. It's also long enough that the rib will likely be fine. Yes, the ER guy checked it out a bit

Oh dear Yanti, PLEASE be careful and don't over-do it!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Stalking tracking you through another IM might give us all ulcers!!!!!!!!! and we'll be stalking tracking Jo too!

A lovely ER guy he is, too Innocent

Melbourne totally makes sense if rib is good! What about bike?

Of course i'm going to overdo it, that's what I do

The bike is getting some new parts at the piglet crackhouse (LBS) here and what they don't have, I'll add in Auckland (like new aerobars/elbow rests and cabling). But the frame is fine, just scraped. Hanger needed to be hammered back--it and the derailleur took the brunt of the fall and yep, I really only did have the two highest and two lowest gears to cycle in that 2nd lap--amazing I got as far as I did!

Muskrat37 - 2013-03-04 11:20 AM WOOOO HOOOOO - SALTY IS BACK!  

Hey there Chad, all ready for the HM this weekend???? Laughing

Ready as I'll ever be, though I admit that I have not trained as hard for this one as I did for the New Years Eve 1/2.  We shall see..

Looking forward to meeting everyone from BT as much as I am the race.  

Cry I wish I could be there...

Me too!  The more the better.  

Looking forward to meeting everyone, but meeting Salty in person is going to be the highlight of my weekend!  

Maybe I will start in the very, very front of the race, so that I can feel that brush of cool air as she goes racing past me!

mmm I had a sneaking suspicion....

Would love for you to do Melbourne - for the party if nothing else!  I'm still 30% doing it....

You know I'll sherpa and support and stalk my azz off for you.  I'd offer you a room but I got a house pest.

if you can't get in - Cairns young lady I'm sure Macca could pull a string or two for you.  After not finishing Abu Dhabi he may have to fit in another race pre-Cairns, I'm praying it's Melbourne!

Anyway - happy healing with piglet doctor....I'm up for a full exam I'm sure!

 I walked Artemis to school - ouch.  That calf is a b*stard.

A lovely piglet just sent me a message - offered to ride with me over winter to get my confidence up...how nice.  Ulterior motive - well he is rather hotness personified it will be nice and scenic at least!

Oh and i just hit the button and entered Ironman Sunshine Coast 70.3 Sept 15.....oops

oh Yanti I don't know whether to laugh or cry at the things you put yourself through. Although I do totally understand the thought process. Traveling around our part of the planet is fairly expensive.

Please promise us that you will only race if you are given the all clear by the doc (however I must say you are looking extremely well in your photo). How are the joints going?

I'm glad to hear that your bike is fixable.

by the way do I remember correctly that you have entered IM WA again in December?

melbo55 - 2013-03-04 4:40 PM I'm sure it has been covered somewhere, sometime, but could y'all yinz (a little Pittsburgh-ese in there even though I'm not from that part of PA) humor me and help with some long distance running/nutrition questions?  How, what, when and how carried should I eat/drink in runs over an hour?  Yesterday I did 7 miles which took pokey ol' me 1 hour 20 min.  I ate a Gu around mile 4.5 or 5, I think.  Didn't take water or liquids along because carrying my handheld water bottle thingie that far didn't sound like it would be fun, but if that is what I need to do, I will HFTU.  Do the manatees eat gels, gummies, real food and how do you carry said food/drink?  I'm guessing over an hour drink something other than water?

I use an amphipod handheld.  It has a pocket that will hold gels.  

The waist packs work well for some people.  I am not one of those people.

^^^Yes. DH got me one that I tried twice.  Sadly, uncomfortable and distracting to me.
