had 10% of the athletes behind me (including some 21-year olds). I took
1 hour and 50 minutes. The winner came in at 1 hr 6 min. Glad to be
alive, albeit very achy. But all that pain feels sweet.Paul

Sunday April 19 at 9.30AM EST Prof. Shrivastava will be
sweating,
weeping and screaming in a misguided and foolhardy effort to
avoid
being DFL (dead f*****g last) in the Passionman Triathlon. His
competition is a bunch of 21 year olds from Bucknell University.
The
race is organized by his class "Managing with Passion" as a ruse
to
bring about his humiliating defeat.
And you can witness the whole sordid episode with glee (hopefully
our
finish line webcam will be working) at:

We urge all his real friends to pray for him, or better still get
him
to voluntarily withdraw, call in sick, or fake an injury.
The 2009 Passionman Team
“Participants in the swim-bike-run competitions face twice the
risk of
sudden death as marathoners, according to the first study to look
at
the issue. "Overall, the rate of sudden death was 15 per
million
participants, the study showed. “While not a large risk, this
is not
an inconsequential number”. In contrast, the risk associated
with
running in a marathon is eight per million, Harris says.” -
