Will join later when I have time to fill out the brackets.  I also watched zero minutes of NCAA basket ball this season, but is is something that I really enjoy and was just thinking the other day that it was March  and wondered if I had totally missed March Madness since some years the whole tournament has been played in February with only the final four playing into March.  

I did see some NBA basket ball this year though.  I was with my family at the Dallas Mav vs. NY Knicks game at the end of December in Dallas and saw one of the most exciting games of my life.  The Mav's were down by about 10 points with less than two minutes of play and there were people walk out early to beat the traffic jam in the parking lot.  Then the Mavs hit a pair a 3's to put it with in 4 points and with a few trades at the foul time and another 3 pointer from Dallas they had the ball down by 3 with 7 seconds left in the game.  Luka Doncic was fowled on a two point attempt with 3 seconds left in the game.  He hit the first one and intentionally missed the second shot, grabbed is own rebound, and hit a shot at the buzzer to send it into over time where they won the game.  Luka had 60 points in that game.  If I could only watch one game, I choose the right one.  Looking forward to more madness.  

I think you should definitely DOO EEETTT re senior games! 

I ran a 10k this weekend. I am happy i got out and did it. My training was not great - i really lost the mojo after getting covid in early January and then another cold a few weeks later. My body needed rest and we skied a lot as a family on the weekends. All excuses but at this point in my running life I have been at it for 18 years this year - i just want to get out and do it in a way that makes me feel good about my effort. 

I had signed up with a speedy friend and knew we wouldn't run together but she tagged in another friend who i met that day and we ran the whole thing together and chatted, despite a hard effort ... i love (and miss) social runs and it was on a nice waterfront path in the city where i went to university. All around a good time to get out.

This should be fun!

Sounds like a great run!

Not tri-related but sport-related: this weekend my ice hockey team had playoffs (needed to win Saturday to advance to finals Sunday) and we won the championship!  The best part of it all was it happened against a team that is very unsportsmanlike, chippy, whiny, and generally nasty and not fun to play.  Now I will switch my focus and try to get back to swimming, biking, running, and add in weight training.

Congratulations!!!
