I was worried I may not be able to paddle, but now it appears as though I might be OK... however after yesterdays training run I think my run at the start of LR&S will be about 30% slower than it was last year... so if I make it out I think 4th is still 'up for grabs' ... unless there are only 4 solo men on the champs course!
Right now there are actually more solo women signed up for the Champ course then men! No sign of Leanimal though???
Once you Phatty Jr and I sign up looks like there will be 5 of us. Hopefully everyone else is just being slack like us and signing up late.
Phatty, sucks the knee is still bothering you. Hope to still see you there.
So top 5 is not out of the question for me?
You might be able to squeak in there!
I'm thinking about it! I really don't have any excuses do I....other than I don't feel like coming off of that run in last place! Who has the worlds fastest boat that I can borrow?
Actually I guess the one thing that may keep me from racing is my bike.....let's see if I can get a new one before then.
I raced for over 10 years on the same beaten up bike.... your's should last for a 4 hour ride (well, 3 hrs for U)
I'm actually in the hunt for the same bike Phatty has......how are you liking the "niner"?
likin' the niner... although I felt pretty mortal on the roads with it today. It will take some adjusting on the tech stuff and I haven't been putting the time in.
