Tonight was our last run and group swim, we'll meet for an easy 19k spin on Saturday morning, then Sunday is race day. I was sitting on a concrete step between two benches waiting for the rest of the group to arrive, and Mr. P sat next to me. As he begins to lace his shoes with his newly purchased bungee laces for the triathlon the following conversation takes place...
Mr. P: So, ya ready for Sunday?
Me: As ready as I'll ever be.
Mr. P: well, at least you've already done a triathlon, you know what to expect, this is my first."
Me: Ummm. This is my first too.
Mr. P: Oh Sh!t. I thought you were a veteran, here to show us all what to do.
Me: Aww, thanks!?? I'll take that as a compliment, but where have you been the last 10 weeks?!
I can't wait for Sunday...

That's great! Good for you. I can't wait for Sunday either (for you). ;)
Now you are under pressure to perform like a seasoned professional.......
BY the way, athena's at 150lbs is funny, being 180cms, I would struggle to be anything but an athena......

Definitely quite a compliment. Good for you!
