"A good wetsuit makes swimming easier, but I'm a lousy swimmer, and I wouldn't rent a wetsuit for a 600 yd swim in 78 degree water."

"I think I've recommended the Big Sur Marathon about a dozen times here. It's my favorite. I am aware that there are some good ones I haven't done yet, though. Oh, yeah, and Carlsbad always comes up. Seems like I wrote a list of…"

"Congrats, wayna, you marathoner, you! And don't stop coming around here just because you're moving on to the 5K. (Didn't you just do 8 5Ks in a row?)"

hey Jerry, I just started following you on Twitter. I see we are sympatico on many areas. I was also thinking about how much I've enjoyed your poems here, and seeing you're a Beatles fan, I thought I'd share one of our more popular discussions from way back

Was just reading over some previous conversation on Diabetics who run Marathons - I think Inspirational Badass would be a good term - I know you've helped me along the way, which I greatly appreciate. Hope to see you at IMAZ (still not sure of my plans - hopefully today).

Are you going to race this Sunday at Xterra?

Thanks for the insight and info, Jerry! Yes, I've not been blogging much here or on my blog, but have been training and participating in a mentor group on beginner triathlete. Noticed that triabetes didn't have much presence here in TX, so thought there might be a chance to help get something going. Have done 4 sprints now, dropped 20 lbs, and am on track for OLY's on 9/5 and 10/2....still a triathon novice, but loving it. I thought that triabetes might be a good way to pay it forward. Are you doing the Carlsbad marathon in Feb? Guy I talked to at insulindependence suggested that. I'll check into team wild as well.

Hey Jerry. I see that you are involved w/ triabetes/insulin dependence. Has that been a good experience for you? I'm considering becoming involved or maybe even being a team captain if that is the need.
