    Thanks Ladies!

    Thought you'd get a kick out of an interesting piece of swag. Where else but Wisconsin do you get a brick of cheese shaped like Brett Favre in the goodie bag?!

    Now this is just bizarre. Why would anyone think of making cheese in the shape of anyone?

    Congratulations on the duathlon!

    I guess we're just out of the cheese loop. This is one of many results for a search using the term "cheese sculpture"

    Yay Dar!!!! Congratulations on a great race! I agree that IS a long bike in between. I guess there is no standard in duathlons? The one I want to do next spring is 3 m. run, 18 m. bike, 3 m. run.

    Congratulations! You did an amazing job. Especially considering you didn't get in alll the training you might have wanted to.

    Ah yes... the duathlon... and being good in one sport and not another. I have sworn off duathlons for life. Why? Because I SUCK at running. I always end up at the end of the pack, with MAYBE 2 or 3 people behind me. It's kind of depressing. At least with a tri, the swim is first and I'm good at that. HA!

    That was a fast bike and runs! The bike was long though! Most of the du's I have done have been around 10-15 miles.

    Nice pictures too... thanks for sharing!

    I wonder how Brett Favre feels about his portrayal as a piece of cheese

    Way to go, Dar!

    Which part of Brett are you going to bite off first?
