  1. I did my first ever open water swim today on the course. Water was 60 and I somewhat panicked at first but after about a minute I realized I wasn’t going to die and to non pussy myself. I did 1.4 miles in 43 minutes. I have a month with a swim coach to get my shit together.
  2. Lol. I have no idea what the fuck that is. I am on a borrowed Cannondale road bike that’s about $4k a few years ago. I will buy a bike after this to start training for a full. I am such a cycling rookie that I don’t know shit about fuck. I did ride with a guy who was sponsored though and kept up with him. There are only 2 hills on the in my opinion. The first is when you make a left turn about halfway through and you will need to shift down. It’s steep but not long. The second is a longer climb starting at about mile 42 if I remember correctly. I think there is a YouTube video and I will try to find it for you. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. For the low low price of $9 a month I will tell you all the secrets plus a 1 time small introductory fee of $500. So avoid bike lanes pretty much until Ga and then the shoulder is awesome for awhile. There are some rough spots in Ga but overall good. I think Chatt will sweep the bike lane before the race but in St Elmo it’s rough as hell. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. I tried to sign up for an Ironman prep for this weekend where you swim the course and run a little today and bike the course tomorrow. They said it was full so I saved my $60 and rode the bike course today and will swim tomorrow. I biked it in 3 hours having to wait on traffic lights and shit and felt alright but I was getting a little tired towards the end. I think it was more of a nutrition thing but still fucked with my head a little. I am glad I did it.
  5. I’ve felt a little tingle in my shorts seeing some dead Russians. If this war doesn’t end soon I’m afraid it will get worse for me.
  6. Sadat talk not going away
  7. I’m going to check it out.
  8. I continue to be amazed at the resolve of the Ukrainian people and I hope we do everything we can to help rebuild.
  9. We need to send a response that reads Dear Putin, Huff my nards Sincerely, America ps. You will be burning in hell soon.
  10. That cannot be repaired.
  11. The can if one of their dad’s is a televsion repairman and has the ultimate set of tools.
  12. As fucked up and shitty as Russia’s military is, I am not so sure their nuke isn’t 2 bottles of Clorox and a bottle rocket.
  13. I really didn’t want us to get involved but after Bucha I think we need to. This is at least a war that if my son went to I would understand it.
  14. Go ahead and put me down as anti Russian after what was done in Bucha and what’s being done to women and children. Fuck every one of them.
  15. Won’t someone think of the poor Russians

  17. The world is a bunch of pussies just sitting by letting this happen.
  18. Goddamnit I do not want us to get into another war but if there was any country that deserved help from us it is Ukraine. I am tired of the rest of the world not caring about women and children being killed. I want to see dead Russian soldiers 24 hours a day now.
  19. I try to be the bigger person but I hope someone shoots that motherfucker.
  20. This made me laugh. Fuck Russia Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Doing a 6 person relay next weekend from Asheville NC to Greeneville SC and at the end it’s all you can drink. My runs are a 4 and 10 mile run. Should be a nice tuneup for May.
  22. Last week no matter what direction I rode I was in headwinds. Loved and hated it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. Thank you and I thought that’s what you were going to tell me. My rest day is Monday so I swim then which is funny since you do that as well. Good thing about training in Chattanooga is I am already used to the hills as my last ride was 35 miles and total ascent was over 1,800 ft. Starting next week I am going to do an hour spin class Tuesday and Thursday at 5 am and after those classes do a 4 mile run and then in those afternoons I am meeting someone whose done Kona( and doing this one) and we will ride those afternoons as well. Looking forward to hopefully meeting you in May.
  24. Since you have done a few Ironman 70.3’s I figured I would ask you about training. I’m swimming 2 times a week, biking 3 times a week and running 3 times a week. On saturdays I will do something like bike 20 miles and run 6. How much more should I be doing for race in May? My longest bike ride has been 43 miles and felt great. I know I am ignorant on this since I haven’t done one and probably overly confident in some ways. My background is that I am a 41 year old college soccer player and have ran probably 15 half marathons and usually them around a time of 1:32.
