NO LOVE HANDLES ALLOWED!

'It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.' Theodore Roosevelt 23 April 1910

Who is this person?

Is this the figure of a sub 3-hour marathon man?


Or a 3 Marathons (formerly known as Snickers formerly known as ... er ... Marathons) a day man?

With the lead you give him off the bike he could do 3hr10 and still go under 9hr!

When was this taken? Interesting take on carrying all your nutrition. . .

Just received the following message from the "unknown runner":

"I deleted it from Photobucket, but it was too late as you'd saved it somehow; dammit. I will get my revenge.

For Sag's info it was only last month, on the way to another sub 38 10km; even in my photos of Roth I have the handles there. Tri shorts & vests don't seem very flattering to anyone but the emaciated.

I can't post on your blog to tell you all to fook off, but feel free to pass on the message."

ROFPMSL!!! :-)

Now that's funny 8-) Still a sub 38 min 10k in a tri is not to be sniffed at so something is working well!
