... ocean swimming at 6am...cycling with friends under a hot sun... running in the rain.... striding up a trackset trail after a fresh snowfall...
Races make great destinations, but training is the journey.
I am lucky to have a wonderful wife and three great kids with me on my journey.

It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done 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 and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who at best, knows 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 know neither victory nor defeat.

I can hardly believe this is Super Bowl 43... I remember the excitement over the first one! No, I can't tell you what teams played then, maybe Dallas Cowboys?? I've been away from football in recent years. This time it will probably be Pittsburg. I'm in a small pool but not very good numbers. :-) Linda
OK, thanks for the answer to #9. I was hoping you'd catch it! Seriously, we had an interesting discussion on the topic and there wasn't anyone knowledgeable enough around to ask! Now I know.
