I'm No Poet

A sampling of sites and links for your race day preparation. It's Friday, and it rained hard all night. Just starting to clear up, lots of steam rising from the black and shining asphalt. Heading out for a run followed by a photo session out and about. It's nervous time in the Garden of Eden. Stay tuned folks, we're about to let her rip.

With apologies to Dr. Suess, ee cummings, O Henry and triathletes everywhere, here is my ode to Friday of Race week.


Twas the day before Kona and all was well,

the players were rested, awaiting the bell.

It will be a hot one, plenty of sun,

A swim and a bike ride and then comes the run.

Macca is still King, Rini the Queen,

A pair of Aussies, strong, long and lean.

Again this year the dream is alive

filled with compassion, E Komo Mai.

Training is done, CompuTraining complete

Now let's just go out and tend to the feat.

The journey of lifetime, 140.6

Starts on the marrow, Big Island hot licks!


My picks on the evening post.
