Friday morning I will be on the early flight out of ATL. Destination: Sin City!!!
An accountant gambling in Vegas?! Yeah, right! The only place my hard earned cash is headed is straight into the pockets of the World Triathlon Corporation. And that’s how I like it!
This weekend I’m competing in the Ironman 70.3 World Championship. The Half Ironman distance race starts with a nice 1.2 mile swim in Lake Las Vegas, followed by a hilly 56 mile bike around Lake Mead, and finishes up with a blistering hot 13.1 mile run through Green Valley Ranch. Now THAT is my idea of the perfect Vegas Vacation!!!
My partner in crime for the weekend is none other than the very talented Mr. Ryan Wolfe. And wouldn’t you know, Ryan’s 28th birthday happens to be this weekend!!! This means two things:
(1) There WILL be post-race celebrations
(2) Drinks are on me!
See you in Vegas!

Have a great race! Beautiful scenery out there, hot weather and all.
Swim coaches clinic out there this week so lots of spies who will make sure what you do in Vegas doesn’t stay in Vegas
Oh Alex, me? Do something a coach would disappove of? NEVER! I’m saving all of that for Mel’s wedding!!! See you soon!!
