Pass


Can I just get a pass for this week? I mean, what with the rain, and the wasp sting, and the family just leaving today (I still would have liked to have them stay a few more days...)...this week just turned into crap - the real crap, not the Mo crab substitute.

Wait, there may be a bit of sunshine today after all. Too bad it's almost dinner time.

Sorry about all the whining - next week we'll return to our normally scheduled programming. Nice 15k bike Time Trial on Thursday. Sweet. Ocean 1-mile Swim on Saturday. Nice. Morton Plant Meese Sprint Tri (1/3 Mile Swim, 16m bike and 5k run) on Sunday. No taper. Taper was this week. It's a "C" race after all...

Oh, and that's a before and after, for this past race I did...Slowtwitch inspired B&A shots - just the attitude leaving the water - thats a nice difference - exhausted vs. raring to go bike!

Why does the m dot look like it is taking a nap?

Great pics all around! My biggest before and after is the inability to think clearly during my first races and my ability to think clearly during races now.

Now if I could learn to think clearly in non-race situations...

Bigun-Amazing what you have done already. I am not sure you can shave another 20 off that frame, but you know yourself better than anyone. Good Luck.
BTW-You do look totally exhausted in that before picture. You should be proud of yourself.

Wow - before or after - I'd don't think I would want to wrestle you.

Funny how all the big guys, myself included have a shot coming out of the water sometime in their first year of tri's, looking completely snockered. I never see skinny people looking as bad as I did coming out of the water

Congrats on your hard work!! Those are great before and after shots.

Hey. Those pictures weren't up the first time i looked at this blog!

Well done! Keep up the good work!

NO! YOU CANNOT HAVE A PASS! I SAY AGAIN, NO PASS!

If you take a pass the large guy in the picture on the left will catch the skinny guy in the picture on the right...and eat him!
