Did you do it, Colby??
Signups aren't until 11 online... it's only 10:15. Still 45 minutes of torture.

I thought about the job aspect, too. I have a demanding job, but I can train in the mornings and weekends. My job does involve some travel, but it's sporadic and planned well in advance (or is very short). The family commitment is another avenue, but they seem supportive. My dad offered to let me tow his kayak swimming, and tow him in a trailer on my bike.
