Triathlon

Nathan just spurred my interest. A triathlon would be really cool to compete in, anyone interested in training for one, over the summer perhaps? Would definitely provide some fitness focus, as well as being bad ass.

Nathan, are you just doing one section as part of a team? or are you going to be a real man and do the whole thing?

I was planning on being a "real man" and doing it solo. As for the summer it would be relatively easy for me to train or race with you after a spring race. For that matter we could train at our respective colleges and then race together over a weekend this spring. Also, for your consideration im planning on doing an Olympic triathlon as opposed to an iron man or a sprint triathlon.

I'm actually very impressed Nathan, I think a sprint was more what I had in mind. A mile swim, or whatever the Olympic length is sounds hellish. That said, far more bad ass to do an Olympic. Do you have a specific event picked out?

The only reason I suggested summer, is that we would be able to train together, competition and companionship boosts motivation. But we'll see.

If we do a team trial I could do the cycling bit fairly well...

I challenge you, Michael Barker, at our mutually soonest convenience, to a cycle-off to determine extent of masculinity, for the title of 'cyclist' on hypothetical triathlon team and for pride.

I think I'd have to take Michael on that one.
