Ironman Fever is Catching On

So, I didn’t go to open water swim this morning, but saw a message from our coach, on one of our numerous email or Facebook chains, that said, “Wasky, don’t lose any sleep over today. It happens. And will most likely happen again.”

One thing about having a training bond with all of these people is that nothing is off limits, so my first thought was, “Erectile Dysfunction,” but he’s a young guy and a snazzy dresser so I ruled that out and asked what happened.

The first response was from Racer K and said, “Wasky almost died.”  I didn’t find any Life Flight reports for Percy Priest lake this morning, so then I imagined group CPR and hoped Allie took the lead.

I guess he had a water swallow incident that must have been worthy of posting about, so I was just reaching out to console Wasky when I read his Facebook post:

“Ladies and Gents….. it is officially official. Registered for Ironman Louisville. See you all in a couple months…. and to my training buddies doing IMOO…. lets get it on.”

You gotta admire a guy who almost dies, gets out of the water, then signs up for an Ironman.
