Becoming Ironman: Legacy: Race Report: Ironman Wisconsin
http://becomingironman.blogspot.com/2006/09/race-report-ironman-wisconsin.html
The continuing saga of an Ironman athlete collecting white lines and mileage signs. Wednesday, September 13, 2006. Race Report: Ironman Wisconsin. I spent the rest of Friday night packing up my transition bags. The weather forecast now was calling for high 50's and overcast, with winds of 5-10mph and no rain, with only a 30% chance of showers in the evening. Perfect! I slept soundly from 10:15 to about 12:45. I'd race with about 2.5 hours of sleep. Is something his son would have done. I packed up and he...

The continuing saga of an Ironman athlete collecting white lines and mileage signs. Monday, September 17, 2007. Race Report: Devil's Challenge Triathlon. When I got out of the car on Saturday morning, just after 6am and with the world an inky blue as the sun considered its rise, it was 34 degrees. Thirty. Four. Degrees. Only crazy people play this game. The day would be spent (with apologies to Erin. Cuz'n Erin: So. We wearing our shirts tomorrow? Whatever you guys wanna do! Me: Sure.ah.I have an...Andum...

Becoming Ironman: Legacy: On Ironman
http://becomingironman.blogspot.com/2011/09/on-ironman.html
The continuing saga of an Ironman athlete collecting white lines and mileage signs. Tuesday, September 06, 2011. I've charted a course to Ironman again for 2013. I had toyed, a year ago, with the idea of doing Ironman again in 2012, but it's been one thing after another this year, making those plans unfeasible. But much more than that, the switch wasn't on. I wanted to race Ironman again. But I wasn't invested yet in becoming. Inevitably, after finishing a first Ironman. On my bike this weekend, while co...

Triathlonia -Tatu Kasurinen : heinäkuuta 2013
http://tatukasurinen.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Torstai 18. heinäkuuta 2013. Treenit ovat rullanneet mukavasti ennen Joroisten puolimatkan SM-kisaa. Sain tehtyä Voimarinteen perusmatkalla hyvä tasaisen suorituksen, jolla irtosi kovatasoisessa kisassa sija 3. Uinti kulki oikein mallikkaasti, rantauduin neljäntenä. Pyörällä pääsin Miettisen Tuukan kanssa ajamaan ja juoksuun siirryimme kärjessä. Juoksussa Tuukka meni menojaan ja voitti. Stenroosin Jarno vielä kuittasi minut juoksussa, mutta onneksi takaa tulleet kovat juoksijat Söderd...Kunto kohti Joroi...

Becoming Ironman: Legacy: After Ironman
http://becomingironman.blogspot.com/2010/08/after-ironman.html
The continuing saga of an Ironman athlete collecting white lines and mileage signs. Friday, August 27, 2010. But what I didn't expect - and what might have contributed more than anything to a necessary break from the game - was how deeply I felt disappointed with my Ironman marathon. What do you do with all that energy? All the goals and ideas and strategies you spent so much time carefully devising, to the smallest detail? The opportunity was gone, and that was that. May it be always so. After doing fou...

Becoming Ironman: Legacy: Following Foxes: Race Report, High Cliff Triathlon
http://becomingironman.blogspot.com/2006/06/following-foxes-race-report-high-cliff.html
The continuing saga of an Ironman athlete collecting white lines and mileage signs. Tuesday, June 27, 2006. Following Foxes: Race Report, High Cliff Triathlon. As I reviewed my race-day stuff, I took a look at the t-shirt. There's a little icon on the shirt swimming, then biking, then running. What is that? Is that a - wait, what? Is that a fox. Into T1, wetsuit off, cycling jersey on, socks and shoes and helmet and glasses and go! In and out in 2:33. It's all part of the process. By the last 2 miles on ...

Becoming Ironman: Legacy: Of Foxes
http://becomingironman.blogspot.com/2006/06/of-foxes.html
The continuing saga of an Ironman athlete collecting white lines and mileage signs. Thursday, June 15, 2006. So I'm in Boston weekend before last, buying an umbrella, and the woman behind me is talking to the check-out lady. And she's saying how it's probably for the best that her cat died, because she has fwahxes in her yahd. Can you believe theat? I am amused by the typical accent, make my purchase, and spend the rest of the weekend telling Amy that it's too bad we have fwahxes in our yahd. That is wic...

Becoming Ironman: Legacy: October 2010
http://becomingironman.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
The continuing saga of an Ironman athlete collecting white lines and mileage signs. Tuesday, October 05, 2010. Race Report: Twin Cities Marathon. Sometime right around the 10 mile marker, I passed the 3:45 pacing group and actually laughed out loud. Everything was awesome. I felt strong and light, the day was truly flawless, and I was having a blast. I was high-fiving kids, bobbing my head to Billie Jean, pointing and laughing at signs that I liked. By far the most fun I'd had at a marathon. This just in...

http://becomingironman.blogspot.com/2009/09/race-report-ironman-wisconsin.html
The continuing saga of an Ironman athlete collecting white lines and mileage signs. Tuesday, September 15, 2009. Race Report: Ironman Wisconsin. The Ironman will be begin in one minute. The cheers from the thousands amassed on the Terrace vibrating in my teeth. The swimmers around me lifted fists and shouted and cheered. These thoughts were there and gone in an instant. Later that day the rest of the Team arrived, including my brother and sister, and lots of friends. All tolled we actually had more.
