I know for a fact that I can\'t do any of these stages on their own, never mind all in one day.  Best of luck to you.

Half Iron Man...pffft...I just got home from running a 10K!  52:48!  I could do a Half Iron Man while drunk, stoned, blindfolded, hungover, one hand tied behind my back, in a potato sack, suffering from swine flu, ulcerative colitis, and the plague, no food for 3 days before or after, and got home from Phish at 2am the night before. :)

Go Paul!

i would probably die somewhere along the bike route. and if i somehow survived that, i would without a doubt be found passed out on the side of the road during the run. totally ridiculous, paul ryan.

yea, there were a couple of ambulances and iv drips given out yesterday due to the heat and people not planning properly. luckily the run had a lot of shade and they had water stations every mile.

however that didn\'t prevent my arms from becoming completely sunburned despite suntan lotion

Do some folks have a "crew" that have back up wheels etc following like I have seen on TV for some races ?

Also when you finish a race like this are you completely drained or high or both ?

really awesome that you can do this and do

congrats
