Don't you hate it when...

your 13 year old son whips your arse in a 1 hour trial on a bike that's too big for him.

The little bugger can nearly swim as fast as me as well.

Impressive! That looks like a race, based on the bib, but was it based on a one hour effort and not on a set distance? Seems odd. How did it work?

More "event" than race. The course is a 49km dedicated cycle track and everyone went off at 20s intervals. Self timed/measured on whatever device you happened to be using so not a super serious affair.

Nope. A few years ago my now 15 year old started kicking my a$$ in the swim. (the gap keeps getting bigger) Each race it takes me longer and longer to catch him on the bike. I expect next year it will be on the run or not at all. Its a day I'm both really excited for and depressed about.

Although I will be able to out shop him for a while.

Don't you hate it when...a much younger running buddy jumps into Triathlon with both talented feet and you say "within a year you'll be beating me...", then he beats you in the next race you are in, then moves far far away and stops racing?





I'll see you in the run
