The one I'm doing in May is of the "sprint" variety....300m swim, 12.5mi bike, and 3mi run. I'm doing one a couple months after that which will be a lil longer. Do you really do marathons??

DID...I'm starting up again this year..I've done the Boston "unofficially" from 2000-2005 The winter training is the worst of it...crossing the line is the best of it!

Does that mean that you sat on the sidelines and passed out the little cups of water??

Oh man, Jason, that sucks. Hope it's over soon. The one thing you can count on is that 'most' of the time, it doesn't last too long....unless you're Kelly in Vegas. Oh man, that's probably one of the worst places to be sick with food poisoning...well, any Vaca for that matter.

Moe - you forgot to mention that you were sitting in a middle seat. God, that had to be the worst!

As for triathlons, I can give you a few tips. When I lived in Redondo Beach, I used to train in my backyard. I'd run from one wall to the other. We're talking about a good 15 feet of brick patio.

You're such an inspiration to me.
