Here's What I'll Be Doing on Sunday:

Up at Lake Placid I'll be competing in my 4th Ironman race--which means I'll be: Swimming 2.4 miles, biking 112 miles, and running 26.2 miles--in the same day. Above is a photo taken at the start of Ironman Lake Placid from a couple of years ago--it's kinda like horizontal slam dancing in the water with 2000 people. As crazy as it sounds, it's a hell of a lot of fun--though VERY painful. Needless to say, there are some incredibly interesting people that do these races--they're certainly not all stereotypical jocks.

Think a good thought (or three) for me on Sunday.
