This Sucks

Do you see a trend here?  Am I making it obvious enough?  My luck has definitely gone to the dark side.  And I don’t think even Yoda can bring it back.

I just found out that the Holy Toledo Triathlon was canceled.  The “Cowards won’t show and the Weak will die” triathlon that shows you that you really aren’t in shape.  The triathlon where you get a Survivor dog tag at the end and it means something.  The race where you question your sanity every second….Canceled.

So with this latest news, that brings the total number of races this year done…..zero.  The number cancelled….three.

Now I am not mad at any of the race directors.  They did exactly what they should have done given the circumstances.  And I know they all agonized over their decision for a long time before throwing in the towel.  My hat is off to them for all that they do and have done with their races.  And I will support them all in the future.

But I also realize that I have not done one race this entire year.  Not a 5K.  Not a sprint triathlon.  Not a 5 mile charity ride from the State Capitol.  I have done NOTHING!  But I haven’t given up completely yet!

I still plan on riding the Tour de Tangi this weekend…..weather permitting.  And I still plan on doing the St. Jude Marathon…..weather permitting.  And I may find a few 5k’s out there somewhere…..weather permitting.

Other than that, this sucks!
