John,

Congratulations!!!  YOU ARE A TRIATHLETE!  Isn't that so cool!

Sorry I have been MIA on the board lately, but I was thinking about you last weekend, wondering how you were doing setting up your transition area, mingling with fellow triathletes, getting ready for the swim, etc., etc.

Great job!

Terry
