Success!


See that t-shirt? See that medal? See that look of satisfaction/exhaustion/exhiliration?

It's all over but the celebrating. I'll post more details and photos on Monday, but this is the smiling mug of one happy triathlete.

Congrat Pat,

That has to feel good. I'd be interested in doing something like that, but with the 40 degree temperature swing for the worst back here in 'sota, it would be a little challenging. Not to mention that additional layer of blubber i've developed during the football season. Keep posting the pictures of sun and warmth to help us in the north of the better times.

P.S. Hope there will be another list of best albums of the year. I got some good recommendations from you last year.

I'll piggyback on the comments of the Backroom Linus and congratulate you on the successful completion of the event. We've had those "mini tri's" at a couple of places I've worked at, but I haven't jumped in just yet. Not that I ever plan to, but it is good to see someone taking the initiative.

We had our first real snowstorm of the year here on the western slope over the weekend. I think it about time to head up to Yellowstone and Jackson for some sledding.

How about your favorite qback, Tjack today? The purple are setting everyone up in 'sota for disappointment again!

Well done sir. We will have to try one together sometime this spring. Maybe in Portland, OR?

Thank you one and all for your kind words. It was a great experience, and I recommend it to anybody who's healthy enough to rise to the challenge.

A belated congratulations from the tundra. Thank you for making me feel more inadequate than I already do, dammit...
