Habs away until Monday afternoon

I've decided to partake in my first triathlon this weekend, so barring me drowning in the lake I will be returning on Monday. I won't have MSN and won't be checking PM's until I get back.

Cool, where are you doing this triathalon. I think they're having a half Iron Man in Oliver here this weekend. The half Ironman they do in Osoyoos starts and finishes right close to my house. If I was allowed to paddle my Kayak in place of the Swim, ride a scooter in place of having to peddle the bike and roller blade in place of running, than I think I could maybe complete one of those.

edit, the Oliver race was last week. As for those who do the Osoyoos and even the Subaru Ironman in Penticton, thats some serious endurance with that Richter pass heading West of Town here on a 35-40 degree day.

Good luck!

I am running the triathlon in Wasa Lake, just outside of Cranbrook.

Thanks for the good luck, should be fun.

Well I've successfully completed my first triathlon and am in one piece....sort of. I can barely walk today but it was completely worth it. Whether I'll do another one, that remains to be seen. Anyways, I think I have gotten back to everyone via PM and I'm back on MSN now so you can get a hold of me without any problems.

Congrats man! Glad to see you had fun, I remember when I did my first one, it seemed like my walking pace could have kept up for my running pace for the middle of the run, and then the last 2km or so I guess I was so relieved to be done that I almost sprinting the way in. You will become hooked now that you did one successfully.
