Thanks for the advice. I think I'm going to wait and see how everything goes this weekend before making the decision (unless I get rained out - we need the rain, but not on one of the few times I...
I am signed up to do the Austin Tri Olympic distance race on Labor Day. They also are doing a sprint distance, and I am trying to decide if I should try to switch to the shorter distance. First a...
Yeah! You're almost there. You've done a great job getting ready, and it's all about to pay off. Just hang in there, and you'll do great!
Awesome, awesome job out there!! Man, are you fast. Best of luck in all your future races. I can tell you are hooked :D
Where I live right now is a 9. However, we have a nice running and biking trail right out side my door, and I can go out and get 100+ miles on my bike with no problem. However, none of those routes...
Here's a link to some pics. Some are decent, some aren't the greatest. And man, I have to flatten my back out on the bike and keep my shoulders down when running. ...
Thanks guys!! And KSH - sounds like you had an awesome go out there as well. And yeah for the medal :D Medals are always nice. Oh, and I totally agree that they needed more bouys out there on the...
Fantastic job out there!!! sorry about the water and stomach thing, but you still ended up with a great time overall. And I wish I could swim that distance with little time in the pool. I'm...
Awesome job out there!! I can't imagine swimming through that junk. I might not have gotten in :eek:
So this was my first race of the year (spent most of Feb - May with a quad injury, unable to do squat), and the first one since I moved to Texas. I did the sprint distance, which was 500y swim,...
Thanks Wahine. That helps. The main thing I guess I am concerned about is starting with that many people grouped around me, just how to handle that, and how to minimize it.
I'm doing a triathlon a week from Sunday, and it's going to be my first with a wave swim start (all the others have been time trial starts with people going every 3 - 5 seconds). I was wondering if...
Okay, cancel that. The athlete tracker is still showing the splits in the single digit mph, but they both just finished, along with a lot of other age groupers, and the avg speeds were 17.6 and...
So I have two friends that are competing at Buffalo Lake Springs Tri 70.3 today. I have been checking in on the Athlete tracker, and they both put in amazing swims (both :33 something), and then...
The one I've mainly seen used is Aldara. There's another one out there, but for somereason I can't think of the name.
My cat Trixi does the same thing. Picks those things up and growls and defends it with her life.
This morning was entertaining for her, though. She is a cat that actually likes water - plays...
Great job - I always love seeing how you guys do. And best of luck for next year!!
Great job girl!!! You are officially an Ironman :D

She's out of T2 in 13:52 and on the run course. Go girl! You're doing great :D
Luckily my OWS this weekend was also good, minus the million people out there for Father's day (oops - kinda slipped out minds) and the fuel from all the jet skis and boats, and then all the wake...
Oh my gosh - you guys are freaking me out with all the stuff that is in the water. I'm doing my first OWS of the year with some of the tri girls that I've met down here in TX tomorrow, and now I...
Oh my goodness - I've just moved to TX and am already sick and tired of these winds. I had to post-pone a couple of rides I had this week in the morning because the winds were gusting up to 40mph. ...
Awesome training month. You'll be ready for IMKY in no time. Just take care of your knee.
Oh, and I agree with the others - you are looking like an Ironman! And as a side note, your place...
Yes, unfortunately I've had to cancel all of my races so far this year, and am hoping to be able to finally compete again in July. I injured my left quad back in March, and am just now able to...
Yep - I absolutely have to remember mother's day, esp since it's also my mom's birthday! I actually called today just in case I forget tomorrow (I have a horrible time remembering stuff like that). ...
