    KSH:
    I kinda know how you feel but mine is with my two best friends. We are all doing the triathlon together this weekend. and its all of our first. But we've done other things like 5k's and other sports where I end up beating them in Not really because i'm better, more like I just train or practice more. We all started training at the same time. We all made our individual plans on what we needed to work on. (we all live in different places now) but as the training has gone on and we talk on the phone about training and constantly I hear well "I decided to go out to eat today with "bob"(or whoever) so I didn't go running today". Or "I was just tired so I didn't go riding today." Or " i'm not very good at the swim so I didn't feel like getting up this morning and going." or " well I'll just go tomorrow" They seriously are training maybe 2 to 3 hours a week if they are lucky. While i'm pumping out no less than 6 hours a week trying to get ready for this thing. And now the tri is this weekend and of course I would like to get a better time than them because i'm competitive and would like to do well but i dont want to maime them! and there is NO way i'm hanging around so we can "finish together" which is what they talked about. He** NO! I'm doing my best and if they can't keep up then too bad. But I know once they finish they will be all mad and sad that I beat them and they will say its because they're bike isn't as nice as mine or I'm better at swimming or they're legs cramped up.. but really it comes down to training, i've put in the hours and they haven't. Now i'm not saying i'm going to win my age group but I do plan to finish with a smile!!! I dont understand when people think they will do just as well without training as someone who has been training... serious lack in judgment I think
    anyways hehe that is my venting for the day I'm sorry about your boyfriend though that is frustrating but good job in doing well!!
