Their words...not mine

And that moustache!

A solid, softspoken intellectual... who can also get down to business with some glow-in-the-dark pipe cleaners.

Seriously.

What's not to love?

Blank is a quiet guy at first but once you get to know him he's an awesome, patient, sweet, smart, helpful, caring & resourceful guy. He knows how to throw one hell of a party and he and Wink are two of the coolest Burners I know. I'm so glad I met them both.

Blank has become an awsome friend. Great listner, intuitive, patient, honest and sincer the only thing that makes him cooler is the fack he has the most awsome soul mate on the planet in Wink. If you ever get the urge to flail about like a beached whale in more fur than ZsaZsa Gabour could ever dream of head to there house remove shoes and do a belly flop. They will both love on you and pet you untill you get a look on your face very similar to that of your pet dog when you rub its tummy in the right spot.

Personal Ramblings

I had another Sprint race last weekend. I went short so it'd be fun. No, seriously! We got a camp spot close enough to ride my bike to the start in the morning, so that Wink could sleep in.

Final time was 1:23, which is the same time as race #1 but the swim was longer, and it was at altitude (7000ft) so I'm feeling' pretty good about it. I actually placed 3 of 23 in the men's 40-44 bracket, and in the top 25% for men overall. w00t! It's definitely a commitment, but it's paying of... read more

Today I completed (!) my first Olympic distance Tri... 1500m swim, 40k bike, 10k run. Apparently, this is a much longer distance than my 'sprint' the other week, and my body told me so.

My swim was pretty strong, < 30 minutes. The water was officially 56 degrees. The bike brought on boughts of self-doubt about 1/2 way through, and about 4/5 through I wasn't 100% sure I could finish even the bike segment. The run was disappointing(at least compared to what I was expecting) but after ... read more

Yesterday was my first race: 400m swim, 20k bike, 5k run.
Total time: 1:23.

I finished in the middle of my age bracket. Not a bad start, if I do say so. I'm ok with being an average triathlete to start. That's my birthday present to myself.
