That is hilarious!! I signed up to do a trial version and I had to turn that e-mail thingy off - it was driving me nuts!Quote:

Way to go!!!!!!
Hello *pokes her head in* Congraulations!!!! 80 minutes off your time is HUGE!!!! :)
The ironman people truly impress me over and over again. And 80 minutes faster, that is just amazing. I did a tri sprint last weekend and felt miserable on the 5k...cannot even fathom 40k...
Congratulations!
Hey KSH, good to see you. :)
Coincidentally (seeing someone from Bogota pop in), I met a woman from Colombia on the bike. I unfortunately dropped her on the beginning of the second loop on a hill (we had been pacing each other pretty well, she said I was her "bike angel"), but I cheered her on whenever I saw her. She caught up to me on the run and I again cheered her on.
I also met a guy that I ran/walked aid stations with for the first 6 or 7 miles of the run. When he saw me go the other way, he waved. It's amazing to me the people you meet. I really like the middle/back of the pack ;)
Today I had a massage and a chiro appointment. It went well! My massage guy helped increase the blood flow all over (I feel better already) and my chiro gave me a very good bill of health (but knocked out some issues in my mid-back and shoulders). Both were very happy with how my hip held up. It's not invisible to me, but it's amazing how far I've come in a year.
I went swimming today, too. I felt like dead weight! Slow and sinking feeling. It was nice to do something. We were only there for about 30-40 minutes, just enough time to feel alive but not exhausted.
NICE... great way to start the day!Quote:
Hello nicole. You have no upcoming workouts.
You probably don't know what to do with yourself at this point!
AWESOME picture!!!! :):):)
x2, but you look a bit masculine in the first two swim pictures ;)
Congratulations, Colby! What a GREAT race in some really difficult conditions. That wind blowing off the lake, plus the rain, had to have made that a very challenging marathon. So many people were sporting those silver blankets that it looked like a parade of baked potatoes!
I swear you look fresh as a daisy at the finish! Great pics!

Yeah, that's the OTHER me... ;)Quote:

Well, it was in Idaho... ;)Quote:
