Triple (yes triple) Ironman lunacy this weekend

Doubly Bionic Ironwolf

eM.milou

Well done gang.................orsum 

Trogs

Amazing! Well done peeps.

cougie

Two days of racing - well done you guys !

Dustboy

Nuts, utter nuts. Unless they don't have screaming kids there all the time, in which case stick me down for a swim....

IronMelissa

I don't know if Dan the one-legged man made it, but he looked pretty good at about 6am. I'm just not sure how far he still had to go. I'll see the crew at about 10p here, and I'll try to get Melissa to post any outstanding stories about the weekend. She may just want to go to bed, though... Zuppy and Candy have to be at the airport around 5am.

IronMelissa

Zuppy here- Dan made it and made it well. Not only that here was in better shape than most who finished.

Hope

WELL DONE ALL!!!

Brilliant, can't wait to hear all about it!

Another pirate triumph. Too racing. Never in a million years would I consider doing any of the legs of this. Incredible! Well done all 3 of you. And top crew support too by the sounds of it.

No Way Out (M.)

Simply Awesome!  Well done!

Crash Hamster

Brilliant, fantastic awecome!

But enough of my 7:05 400m swim, you guys did quite well too

336 on a bike? Blimey!

Well done everyone, including the inevitably brilliant Pirate support crew.

Lindi is my new hero

Sorry Crashie, it was you, for your awesome 400m swim, but you've been ousted. ; - )

Well done Zuppy, Lindi and Candy - it all sounds truly horrible.  Chapeau! Good jawb, n' stuff...

IronM.in

Fabulous. Amazing. I'm speechless and awed. And or'd. Incredible!!!! Sleep and eat well guys!

fat buddha

respect guys.......

well done

oxymoron

so zuppy was about 3 hours 40, lindi was about 22 hours and they took about 47 hours?

well, maths was never my strong point, but it would appear that candy is firmly in the homo category!

smiley lady (M.)

He did stop for a wee snooze.

fat buddha

is that like pissing yourself and snoring at the same time???

debbo

I guess at your age FB that's something you're well familiar with?

fat buddha

aye

debbo

tee hee

I guess that was a slower run than last time for Candy?

<Temporary escape from the training threads>

Well done all three of you.  There are some quite remarkable achievements coming from various Pirates these days.  It is undoubtedly an honour to count you crazies amongst the people I know and respect in this world - you wouldn't catch me doing it though.

<Off to try and write a race report>

why do people keep saying 'hat' to each other?

IronM.in

Hat Jj? Dunno ackershally... why do they, anyone?

smiley lady (M.)

So Zuppy and Candy are in JFK. Zuppy has 1 hour in LHR tonight to get from Term 4 to term 1 and checkin for flight to Cork. Is it possible?

IronM.in

Erm... it'll be tight! Can he check his bags straight through from JFK to Cork?

Holly_Golightly

He'll need to hop on the Heathrow Express.  They leave every 15 mins, and it's free between terminals.  Think it takes less than 10 mins transfer. 

smiley lady (M.)

He flew hand luggage, decided not to take a wetsuit so that he could fit is all in a small rucksack!. Plan B is the first flight out of stansted in the morning (gotta love €1 flights!)

Will text him Holly's advice. Thanks

smiley lady (M.)

Doors have closed on the flight to LHR now. This is more stress than the biddy race!

Holly_Golightly

Once he's off the flight, he'll need to follow the Heathrow Express signs.  Should be fine if he's only got hand luggage, and he can run, can't he?!!
