So thanks to T I have been motivated to participate in a triathalon. As to which triathalon I will be competing in has yet to be officially determined. So I have been doing the routine swimming, biking and running to get ready for it. But then I weighed myself today... I am up 7 pounds since last week, and it is not fat by any means. That makes me a cool 220 pounds. I blame the lifting. Even though I am working for lean muscle, I still pack on the muscle weight like a fat kid eating cake (I use to be one of those too ) The weight doesn't concern me, what does is the "What if" questions that follows...
Q: What if I start to drown during the swim?
A: Basically I am on my own because I don't think that the other competitors will be able to lift me with their average weight being around 150 (unless T is around because she is the only one I fear losing to in arm wrestling). Worse case scenario I will have to rip the shorts off of the nearest competitor. Not that it would save me, but it would make my trip to the bottom a lot more funny.
Q: What if one of the other competitors plays dirty and tries to kick me off of my bike?
A: I am actually hoping that this happens because the added weight would help me to stop and throw my bike at them to knock them off instead. Hopefully into oncoming traffic.
Q: What if during the run I collapse during the run?
A: Enjoy a two hour nap wait for T to come and carry me the rest of the way. (jk T... I'll only have to wait an hour and a half )
This has got me all stoked because my goal is to get the t-shirt at the end. That way when I wear it people will think that I am some super athlete (I am, but I am being modest because real men are modest). So watch out! The Juggernaute is swimming, biking and running in that order. But I would do them all simultaniously if they would allow it.
