Volunteeer burnout (?)
I try to help out at as many running events as I can - health issues have precluded me being much of an active participant these past few years. With very few exceptions, volunteers are treated pretty shabbily, they show up early to do a lot of the grunt work as well as help run the event and tidy u...

I loved the video of the start. Grizzly Adams fires up a smoke and the race begins.

Shoes - technical or fashion ?
Whilst looking for a new (yet again) pair of sneaks I'm lost.
There seems a ridiculous range of choices - of colours and designs, with questionable technical benefits.
Am I missing something here, or is a lot of it change for the sake of change and nothing more ?

Re: Time limit for Try-A-Tri Swim?
There is (usually) no time limit. My first couple of event swims I looked back as I was getting out of the water and the safety canoe/kayak was following me in. I said to myself "someone has to be last out of the water", then went out and caught a few people on the bike and on the run. Giv...
