fun prop bet - mini triathelon

[marine]

I posted what happened the day of the race in the other thread about this that trollin4hawaii had made.

on another note.
I've caught the tri-bug now.

I've taken up swimming again since the event. This morning I knocked out 1/2 mile in the pool in ~19 minutes.
I've splurged and got a semi decent used bike and ride for fun.
I've got my 3 mile run time down to 20 minutes.

I've decided that I must completely one up miss smarty pants next year and I am going to run the full triathelon rather than the mini one.

Good luck with all that.

ok, so saturday sitting around the BBQ grill with friends... girl who is uber competitive and snobby claims she has been "training hard" for a mini triathelon coming up on 17 Aug.

.5 miles swim
12 mile bike ride
3.2 mile run

I claim that any person off the street can do something that small and complete it - simply a matter of being mentally strong enough to push yourself.

She claims she has been training for 3 months now to get ready for it. Me, on the other hand, well I've maintained a steady diet of hot pockets, pizza, and m&m cookies the past few months.


Wager made: Dan (that's me) will register for tri-athelon on monday and will run it with her on the 17th .

Men start 3 minutes ahead of the women.

For her to win, she must either pass me at some point in the race or finish with a better time overall than me.

To insure that I do not "miraculously train for this" I must buy the bike to ride the day prior to the race - and can spend not more than $150 on a bike.

Dan wins: $300 paid to me
Her wins: I pay her 200$


Coolest prop bet I've taken on in awhile, thought you might enjoy it.

anyone run a triathelon? are they hard?

You'll be destroyed.

Did a sprint tri about a month ago and nailed a top 10 overall time.
