PI Tri!

I really want to do the Presque Isle Triathlon this year.

I think it would be a fun thing for Shane and I to do together. And it's not TOO bad (.35 swim, 13 mile bike, 3.5 mile run). . . .

but . .

1) it's August 28th . . . pushing cold weather for Erie (not sure if I can get myself to get in the water if it's much colder than 80 degrees outside.
2) last year my brother-in-law, Bry, did it, and it was cold, rainy, and he had to swim in 4' waves. . . yikes!
3) Shane refuses to swim in Presque Isle because of the dirtiness, darkness, loch ness monster, and all the other fishies

But really, wouldn't that be fun?! Should we do it?!

This just in . . . . (aka - just found on their site) . . they have a Duathlon too! 3.1 mile run, 12.4 mile bike ride, another 3.1 mile run . . then Shaney wouldn't even have to swim. Hmm . . . maybe I could get him to do both though, because this is in July! Is it ok to walk the last 3.1 miles?!
