felt like crzap. but, if i don't have the fitness now...

of course i could have gotten more workouts in. of course i could have been better trained for this half-iron. but dwelling on what could have been is not going to change anything. just going to go and have a good time. if a pr comes of it, icing on the cake.

just so tired in the morning. what is my problem?

last day of ragbrai we rode to burlington. had the chance to ride up snake alley, "the crookedest street in the world." front gears got stuck in the middle, had to grind all the way up in 2nd. the boss rode up it too, what a stud.

swim across iowa update - i have actually swam past chucktown, the town where i work!
