St. Anthony's Triathlon Triathlon (Olympic) (Page 2)

LUCKY!  Do you know there's a WAITING LIST of people to get the priviledge of marking those hard bodies?!?

Sharon

 In 2003 I watched the D-Rays play the Orioles on the Friday evening of race weekend.  Attendance was pathetic.  We bought two really good seats from a season ticket holder the evening of the game.  Make sure you bring something warm to wear.  They crank the AC like there are 30,000 people in there.  There were about 2,000 people the night we went.  It was freezing!!!!!

GO RED SOX!!!!

I may be in NY, but I hate the Yankees.

I love being the minority, no pressure, especially when no other baseball team comes close the Yankee history!!.....See you all in St Pete....!

Oh, so the fact that they crushed your Yankees after being down 3 games to 1, a feat that had never been done in the history of MLB is NOTHING?  My bad.

Sore loser!

Funny I dont sound sore....But if you need validation on the comeback I wont argue. Im glad you have something to be proud of....You should also be proud of the fact that if you want to compare the Sawx with anyone it should be the Florida Marlins, they have 2 World Series victories also....

Anyway Im only busting so please dont take me seriously...I'll buy you a beer after the race. See you in down there.

Here is my latest official volunteer notification.....note the 4:45am time I report for bodymarking.....yikes.  I must really like you guys. 

"Dear Shannon:

The countdown to the 2006 St. Anthony's Triathlon is well underway and we're
excited about an even bigger event this year!  In December, St. Anthony's

will run the show and we're looking forward to having you as part of the
team!

BABE, BUCKNER, BUCKY, BOONE I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin'.

Heh. Aaron Boone.  Yeah.

That aside, granted, we are (you are all) athletes, but I'm just wondering ... anyone up for cigars?  The good kind?  I'm gonna drag some along, just in case, but would hate for anyone to be left out. 

Offer's good for *ahem* co^ankee fans. 'Scuse me!!!   

Um ... has anyone seen the water temp as of late?  The weather buoy outside of St. Pete is apparently down, but according to the NOAA weather report the bay water temp is 76* today ...

Last year it was just under the cutoff temp.  If I recall the pro cutoff is different, and it was over their mark by 1/2 a degree. 

I'll take it and I'm ready for it, wetsuit or no wetsuit.

A few of us got in yesterday. Dual sign up for St. A's and MPM.

TECH GEEK ALERT!!!  Ron, MD, since a lot of races repeat themselves year after year, can we have a new thread for each race so we dont' read last year's stuff again this year?    I just figgered out this Nexus thing. 

now worry about this AFTER you sign up!  thanks.....

Not sure if you need the votes but you have one from me as well. It would be nice to have a fresh thread for the 2007 race....that is if I can get registered in about 10 minutes!

Michael

EDIT: Or...should I say now that I am registered....gave it a try about 10 minutes early and it worked! YIPPEE

Just noticed the same thing. Yeah, we'll change it. 

BTW, I'm IN!! 

Bob and I are in too!
