  1. I remember last year I was eating my lunch after the race and people were still coming off the bike and I looked at someone and said those poor bastards as it was getting hot. In all seriousness, I absolutely have a ton of respect for someone who takes a little longer and is out there pushing themselves. You are only racing yourself and it is a privilege to be out there.
  2. Yes. There are many from all walks of life and fitness level. I remember my first 70.3 I was nervous and saw a bigger guy with his wetsuit pulled halfway down ripping a cig waiting to swim.
  3. I appreciate you saying that and I will admit I am a little lucky with my job and some genetics but you can do it too.
  4. I was the same way growing up and thought swimming would be easy and boy was I wrong. What I learned is I had a breathing problem in the water.
  5. A guy I train with is 63 and will finish the 70.3 in under 6 hours this year.
  6. You can probably run that already.
  7. Not the highest but closer to highest. I honestly never pay attention and go off of feel. I will be faster this year on the bike and am interested if I can average close to 23 and then run a 1:35 half. There is a two mile bike climb up chickamauga that really slows down the average.
  8. I rarely turn over 70 rpm and I averaged almost 22 mph for the 70.3 and Averaged over 20 for the full. I am half and half staying in the drops on my tri bike.
  9. A lot of military voted for Trump because he is an alpha so enjoy the sandy beaches is all I can say.
  10. Look into spin class at Y.
  11. 4 Dur Chess
  12. That’s the second time you’ve posted something and I can’t tell what it is.
  13. Fuck em. I hope they do.
  14. Let’s see how big the Texas economy is when it’s only white people working.
  15. Time to print up some “ I did that “ stickers with Trump on them.
  16. But but He Is RuNnInG iT lIkE a BizZnEsS. I got told that shit non stop his first term and I would always say you mean the one he filed bankruptcy on? That never got a response. lol yeah Susan, I am sure he will listen to you you dumb bitch.
  17. It’s like running. You have to go longer to go faster. Ride a few 60 miles to get a good base. You will be faster on race day from adrenaline. Main thing is also doing some bricks. I will do a lot of 60 mile rides and 10 mile runs before Nooga 70.3
  18. For your first I would say 3:10 overall which would be just under 18 mph average but it also depends on the course.
  19. Sir, I can assure you my dog doesn't fly.
  20. Exactly. My first time in the pool I couldn’t even go a length and it mentally fucked me and the guy I train with was laughing at first but through hard work I am a swimmer now. Triathlons are about improving yourself and I can tell you I respect the hell out of anyone who signs up and puts it out there to see what they are made of. I love hanging out at the end of the race and cheering people on during the cut off. Those are the people that are really challenging themselves and it chokes me up sometimes.
  21. I hate to say it but I treat this like I treat the war against Russia. I want as much pain as possible.
  22. It’s all breathing. I would recommend breathing on the same side every stroke on that side at first. This will sound weird but if you could get someone to film you I can help you. I can guarantee you that you are using your legs too much. Kick from your hips and not your calves.
  23. It’s a perfect practice day and looking at times I could win the whole thing.
