TOP SECRET TRAINING......................
NO.....I'm not training to be a homosexual disco recording artist (not that there's anything wrong with that). In fact, since I've joined I have not seen these YMCA front men even once. I have bumped into this guy a bunch of times though.
I've been working out pretty regularly this winter (spinning class, body pump, and swimming) and have not lost a pound. However, now that I'm the second comming of Mark Spitz, my neighbor is trying to get me to do a triathlon. Does anyone know the distances for swimming, running, biking?? Or does it vary from race to race. He assures me I do not have to look like one of the Village People to do a triathlon. HMMMM.

I think you should try the "homosexual disco recording artist" training instead of the tri.
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, if'n you do that training, I gotsa friend who can gets ya sum work onda streets.

Here are the distances for a typical sprint tri, and the standard Olympic distance
the order is swim bike run
Sprint 750 m (0.5 mi) 20 km (12.4 mi) 5 km (3.1 miles) A 500 m swim is also common. The Sprint Distance is the fastest growing triathlon race distance in the United States
Olympic 1.5 km 40 km 10 km Also known as "international distance", "standard course", or "short course".
the sprint distance is also for females going thru an "empowering" experience ( nothing wrong with that, gretchen has guided many such females thru that and it was awesome for them ).
downside - the distance as it relates to men is for pussies, or possibly 12 year olds. don't let that happen to you, bubba.
do the OLY or standard or INTL distance, or stay home. fuck it, do a 1/2 IM and make a day of it. it is not like our man bubba is going to sink ! isigned up and did the ironman and i couldn't swim a length atthe time - it is not that hard to learn, bro.
seriously tho - there is a great one in june up at the osthoff in elkhart lake - the family will dig it - very posh. tri is a funny sport - last one we did there were guys there with haircuts worth more than our car. coming from the kewaunee WORS race the week before at the landfill, we felt like jed and granny clampet in mr drysedale's bank. :) do one or two for fun with yer buddy, and then get back to the dirt. be prepared to hurt.

I think Sug is right. Plus don't get a tri-bike because once you ride one you can never ride in a straight line again.
The only thing I know about tri is when I got stuck in a group ride next to some feller who was waxing eloquent about how he wears women's swimsuits for tri. I was able to get away before I learned any more.
Candy is doing the "empowering" that Mr.T mentions. I bet she kicks your ass! Give it a whirl and remember I got a guy that will hook you up with that street action to help pay the entry fee!
I was going to do a tri. Then a "good" friend reminded me, I already suck at one sport, why would I want to suck at three.

sug. bubba would have to go the cross-dressing route like jim G mentioned if he wants to race candy at the danskin, as it is female only.
no slam on the danskin, the women have done it many times and they dig it the most.
incidentally, candy would kick ass at an OLY distance, or even an 1/2 IM - i am very sure of it.

Is Danskin a condom manufacturer???
Yes bubba, especially if you start "homosexual disco recording artist" training!
Bubba would need to work up to the 12mile bike ride part of things.
Bubba,
Try the tri you bi.
update this POS!
What's happened? This used to be a really crappy blog, but lately it's not even good enough to be compared to Ramby's.
There's only one worse than this one: mine.
