Congratulations IRONMAN wooo! I am terrible at swimming so I would have drowned . . . the bike leg would have been eh just ok . . . and the run, well I would have gone maybe 3 miles and then been barfing my guts out in the bushes like that one lady. Let's just say I don't do well in the heat. That is freakin awesome!!!! You'll have to add things that worked well and others that you would have done differently. Never good when you stop sweating, glad you got the broth! HOLY CRAP that is AMAZING!!!!! Congratulations IRONMAN wooo!

And you're right, better to spend on this, than booze. And better to run than to let oneself go. I did the Oakland Marathon on 3/27, The Relay 4/29-5/1, and signed up for the Morgan Hill Marathon 10/23. That's a ton for me, considering I haven't run a race in over a decade. Dave Larson and I signed up for Morgan Hill for $35 - half off @ Living Social. He said at that price, no biggie if he doesn't show up. I want to, though. I'd better train so my legs don't give out.
