Wha' choo talkin' 'bout, Wilcox?

I just completed the Oswegoland Park District "i tried a triathlon'' this morning: 250m swim, 6.5 bike ride, and 2.1 mile run. It felt really good. It was fun, and I didn't puke. I finished in a little over 65 minutes, but more importantly: I finished! The swim about killed me. My wife put a LiveStrong bracelet on my bike. It kept me going, too. I kept thinking, "If some dude with one nut can win the hardest race in the world, I think I can keep pedaling."
Anyway, other than the few get-out-of-my-way, this-is-serious! people there, everybody was very supportive and nice to each other. They had all ages--even kids. I think there were entire families doing it together: really cool!
Thanks, Oswego, for putting on a great "race."
