Pretty much sums up Ironman Austria. Even though this was in Lodon 5 days later.

Where I live and play: Cave Creek, Arizona.
Spouse/Kids/Animals: Sure, they are all awesome and blah blah blah, but time is precious so I'll go tell you about the most impressive of them all: Remy. She's a Frisbee dog we got at the pound (though they call them something like "no-kill shelters" now-a-days.) She's been on Animal Planet. And the other day climbed up on the counter and ate Alison's steak and then got sick all over the bedroom the next day. She's like a rock star with the celebrity and the puking. She's like our own little Keith Moon. Let's hope you doesn't burn out.
Favorite race: Anything with a short swim and a longer run. Like a 500/5k Splash And Dash.
Worst race: Anything with a long swim and a short run. Like a 2000/3k. That's not so good for a man of my meager swim abilities.
What you want to be when you grow up: Astronaut or superhero. Maybe both, like Steve Austin. Well, he was a test pilot, but that's pretty darn close in my book. Or maybe a mob boss or dragon hunter. Those are pretty cool, too.
Favorite place to be active: Anywhere outside and not cold.
Role model: Bill "Chappy" Tjaden at Endurance Rehab. He's got a good movie quote for any occasion. That kind of preparedness you gotta admire.
Proudest moment: I'm kind of down on myself right now so nothing good is coming to mind.
Best training tip: Don't get down on yourself.
Favorite pre-workout/race meal: Anything with sugar. Like jelly. Strawberry jelly perhaps. Maybe sandwiched between two cookies of some sort.
When I'm not riding, (running or swimming) I'm: Think about how I should be training instead of watching the dog chase bugs around the backyard while I suck on tasty and affordable Folgers coffee.
