Wishing all well
as yours truly will be endeavoring his second and hopefully last Ironman this weekend.
Feeling undertrained, I'm apprehensive about the run, but that's why we run them. I'll give a report if anybody outside of my immediate family is interested. You can follow progression of the two Ironman races via the internet at www.ironmanlive.com. There will be one in Nice, France and one in Coeur d'Alene Idaho. They're all day affairs so interested parties, if any such person exists here, can check back all day long.

All I can say is that I talk the talk, but Arch walks, runs, swims and bikes the walk. Ok, that didn't really work but you get the idea.
Good luck and we'll be watching and cyber-rooting (that doesn't really sound so good either. I better stop now).

I'm just stupider than y'all and have to keep proving it time and time again.
Each race redefines pain. It is supposed to be pretty there though.

If you see a bike time slower than 6, you'll know I had flats and other bike problems. PS, I'm an expert at mechanical bike problems.
