so you have experince on your side, and they say your a fast runner,
i’m just young and inexperinced.
is this a def. thing? I was under the impression that Mr. Clark would only race those with a bit more experience so he doesn’t send a newbe packing away from the sport for getting their butt kicked soo bad they never want to race again. 
(actually this is just a random thought)
Tri or Du?
Ah Erik - there 'ya go! Since MarkinCin can’t go (tibial stress fracture) - you have some more competition! Do 'ya wanna get wet this time though?
I believe that in the IMLP Smackdown thread, Tri_Yoda said it well:
“You are confusing the ability to post actual results with the ability to talk smack. There need not be any correlation as evidenced by Eric Clark and myself.”
Let the games begin (I’m just going to watch).
Good point Buckeye! Well, behind KGrogan, Erik Clark can talk smack with the best of 'em! Hell, I might as well take him on in a bike race ;0
newbz you are going down. maybe
I only race duathlon at Buckeye Lake. Once you see the water you will know why.

I would take up another sport before I would risk taking on Eric Clark. Seriously, if you play with matches you may get burned.
rod, next time we race i will be taking you down.
columbus marathon 10-15-2006

hey, i should have had a clue about the water last year after a local such as yourself wouldn’t touch the water, lol.
i think you should stop being a pansy and just take on the water there;)
its only green from all the radiation, nothing else, aside from maybe some sewage…
but seriously, duathlon?
yep duathlon only for me at buckeye lake, sorry newbz.
by the way, no chance in hell that race is wetsuit legal, water temp. is over 80
duathlon huh? this is uncharted waters for me.
kitty growing up in cleveland I know how to spot a place not to swim
.
guess this means i should run sometime this week…
Go for it! Way less “stuff” to have to worry about as well.
OK Erik - Columbus Marathon is ON! Oh, if you are too far back at the half way point, my father should be running it as well and he will smack 'ya down too at over twice your age!
newbz, do whatever race you want. the water is safe it is just brown from all the power boats in the lake. It is pretty shallow so it gets stirred up pretty easily.
well after buckeye lake I am going full marathon prep. I will be only riding my bike for active recovery. I might swim a little bit also.
I second that. Buckeye Lake LOOKS bad, but really isn’t. If there was anything wrong with it the water skiiers would be dropping like flies.
hmmmmm, how would the smackdown work if we were in two diff races?
