Honey, we're all on the DebilBook and Debil Juice

'cept you and DP and Bicks.

They're not the only ones. Don't forget the one who gave debilbook its true name...

Back to thread topic:

I swam swimmingly yesterday during a pass/fail assessment.

Actually it was pretty sloppy from the 500 meter point to 1,000 meters but hey, I passed.

Fail:  good chance of not participating (coaches give more intense training schedules and a second assessment). 

Only one guy failed two years ago.  He's a coach now.  He said the humiliation and flat out failure pushed him to the coaching point.

You've been missed

I'd be the one failing...while flailing...and asking for six sets of floaties

Go StayPuft go! Show us what you know!

It was great meeting "The Dude" at long last.   She brought us some epic beer.

I'll be out there doing Lavaman too.  This event is a little different than Moab, but is gonna be just as good!  We should meet up out there during the weekend.  Keep up the good work

Awesome!

See you there.

Stella and I will be reversing roles from Moab.  Unfortunately, B-Dawg can't make the trip.  ;)
