Four to Go

Old age has not dulled my buddy Cook's sense of humor:

Good luck, remember a few things:
1) Be sure to pack two of everything, knowing that one of your bags will not make it.
2) Wear running shoes on the plane, just in case your connecting flight is in a different terminal and you have to piss.
3) Keep the room hot and stuffy so not to get sick.
4) Eat at places where the servers are missing teeth, it says a lot about the food.
5) Olive Garden pre-race meal is a must.
5) Swim fast, don't get a punctured ear drum. And, don't focus on the fact that Duncan is a better swimmer.
6) Ride smart, don't puke or stop in a porta-potty at mile 56. And, don't worry that Hazards tuned-up your bike.
7) Run/Shuffle, same as number 6 just substitute mile 1. And, be sure to raise your hands when crossing the line as this will block the picture of Madonna Butter finishing behind you.

Four to go- AM: Masters Swim, PM: short jog
