It's true. I hang around with a crazy bunch.
I'm looking forward to sharing in SOME of the training adventures of my friends who all just signed up for Ironman Canada in 2010. As far as I know, the following psychos are all in: Shawn, Karen, Shelley, Lynn, Carrie, Amy, Dr. Rick and, of course, my Rick.
There may be some others out there who haven't 'fessed up, but they'll admit what they've done soon enough.
While I have "retired" from Ironman distances events (my knees said, "No ma'am" when asked if they'd like to partake), I am excited to do part of the training with the Canada people. First, I am playing around with the idea of doing another amazing event for Team in Training in the late spring: a century ride around Lake Tahoe. It calls itself "America's Most Beautiful Bike Ride" and I'm thinking that may be true.
And, I figure the Canada people will do a half-ironman race here and there to prep for the big race, so you never know, I may be inspired to do the aquabike portion of a 70.3.

My friend Sam is a coach for Team in Training's Lake Tahoe century. She said it really was one of the best century rides she ever did. I'm thinking about doing it too...if I could only get a full-time job first!! :-)
How cool would it for both of us to peddle around Tahoe?
and fingers crossed for a job..
That would be very cool! Also very cool if I found a job :-) Thansk for the reference!
It was VERY hard to not sign up with everyone, but I'm hoping I can tag along as a sherpa. I too will be training with them at least through July for my A race 1/2 ironman in CA. I too hear the Tahoe century is amazing!
