Newbie Wisdom

Since my youngest felt the need to watch TV at 4am this morning, I had some extra time to browse on my computer... I found these cute "Common Mistakes made by Newbie Triathletes"

2. Big girls on mountain bikes. Big girls on mountain bikes are surpassingly fast. Do not take it for granted that just because you are on a big ring, carbon fiber, aero bar out-fitted, race-tuned tri-bike that you'll easily pass that big girl up ahead. Make this mistake at your own peril and your self-esteem will suffer.*** I will agree to this one! I had a big girl on a mountain bike FLY past me! Twice! She took a wrong turn and still whizzed by!****

1. Beer. Avoid all triathlons that are not sponsored by a brewery. Not only does a post race beer greatly help in the recovery process, but it also helps one forget all the mistakes. Plus as an added benefit after enough beers, that big girl on the mountain bike don't seem so big anymore.

I just thought the last one was cute.
