      @Jim - those guys were absolutely LEGENDS at Carolina when I was there - long story short - Darius was a Budweiser fan (still is) as was I. I would buy a round for the band, walk up to the stage and hand over beers to Darius and the guys..... wait about 5 minutes and then chat up all the young coeds who wanted to know how I knew those guys. Best $15 a guy could ever spend ....

      Nice job Joe, it really is more about the effort than the result, isn't it?

      @Brendan - absolutely - full on naked tomorrow - just going to go out for an easy 8 and enjoy the rain. There is something so soothing about being out there hearing the rain fall all around you .... doesn't get any better.

      I saw that! Jeni and Joe- this was on my mind heavily as my family is close by and it would have been so nice for me. But as you know, the day before this race I am doing my half to honor my best friend in heaven. So I will do this: think about Dom as well! We've got some wonderful angels looking down on us!

      Great way to get the week going, Joe! Yes, definitely glasses when you bike. I'm assuming Texas has bugs, and a bug in the eyeball moving along at 20mph is no fun!

      Joe, I wish I can say it gets easier (you will understand and those that have lost someone so close to them). You do continue to live....you just learn to deal with those up and down days better. I hope and pray Keith and the kids are holding up. Same for Val and the kids.
