Are you a real Man?

Pony up, Get tough, Don't going crying to your mama! I got the fun filled racing experience you can only have nightmares about. A weekend of Pain, no pussies allowed. Yea right!

Check out this link. It is called the Desoto Triple-T. You do a warm up race on Friday (250m swim, 5 mile bike, 1 mile run). Not too bad.

Saturday morning you do an Olympic tri to start your day off. At 3:00 pm, you do another Olympic tri, assuming you are done with the first. They reverse the swim & bike, I can only imagine to trick you into thinking you might finish.

Sunday, that is right contestants the fun is not over, you are the proud participant in a full 1/2 Ironman triathlon. 5-7 hours of Pain.

This whole weekend is closer to what I do in 4 weeks, of training. Registration opens 10/1, the website claims it fills up by December. Insanity running wild.

I'll pass, that is just crazy!!!

And by the way, I am witness to the fact it takes some people more than 7 hours to complete a half-ironman. By far the hardest thing I've ever done.

As a relay team perhaps. That's not really the point of this race is it tho'?
