| Subject: RE: Training for triathlon v. Not training for running My first reaction was that his color scheme sucks balls. My second reaction was...WTF is he talking about??? My third reaction was to scroll down to the bottom just in case he was actually trying to make a point, then got a good laugh about his comments on LA. |

Member 5452 NC | Subject: RE: Training for triathlon v. Not training for running The first time I read it I either didn't see the footnote, or it wasn't there yet. So, I assumed this was some really witty spoof that I just didn't get. I read it about three times figuring the joke was on me. |

Umm.. Lance has done and/or does Ironmans I think he can probably swim fairly well. |

My third reaction was to scroll down to the bottom just in case he was actually trying to make a point, then got a good laugh about his comments on LA. Spot on... Terrible writer and the color scheme hurt my brain. Plus LA was SUCH a good swimmer, he was even thinking about the Olympics in that. |
