One week until my first triathlon, the Vineman. Swim 400 meters, bike 9 miles, run 5k (3.1 miles).
I tested out my wetsuit today for the 1st time, in a local FREEZING cold lake. I'm mostly scared of the swim, I really suck at swimming...especially in open water.
Looking forward to going to Philly for Pico Day.
Swimming got me in touch with the Kevin Bacon day joke I did with Luis.
As long as you don't get attacked by a Narwhal, I think you'll do alright. Just keep your eyes peeled, because triathalon participants are the natural enemy of Narwhals. :O
I know, I bought some special anti-narwhal cream just for this occasion.
I'm scared of swimming in an open body of water and seeing you in your swimsuit charging at me.
hopefully you show up with all your limbs
Good for you! That is really hard to do.
Don't drown.
When do we get to see your next game?
you photoshopped your thigh muscles
and also come to baltimore the day after its a short ride away
That's the only part I didn't Photoshop ha ha
I love you BoM!

You need a Nogfish

If you don't like swimming call Kevin Bacon. When something sucks in your triathalon who you gonna call? KEVIN BACON!!!!!
Make sure the water is nice and wet before you dive in.
aww i thought it was gonna be the name of your new game :(
Good luck Nick!
That sounds sick! I would totally want to do that sort of thing. Open water for 400m does sound pretty daunting I won't lie but as long as you keep a steady pace you should be good to get through it. Also, those last 2km running will probably feel like death but I wish you the best of luck :)

Mmm...
REAL men either swim naked or in speedos. Not in those sissy Full-Body-Suits things.
