Pub > Triathlon. You've been training for these games since August.

The pub is an hour away from the venue. It actually works well this time though, I usually plan to leave for this race at around 4:30

The best bit of scheduling was in 2012 though - FA Cup final on the morning of the Ironman. There's no better race-morning prep than watching the Blues beat the scousers and lift a cup

Fifty-minute PB that day...

Kurt Zouma will get in tonight and empty his pocket on the kitchen table.
Mobile phone, Keys , Wallet, sunglasses and Fellaini

85 points to win it if Arsenal beat us - so first game we could win it will be Liverpool home.

83 to win it if we draw. Meaning we could win it at home to Palace.

82 to win it if we win next week, meaning we could win it against Leicester.

It's not done yet. Still lots of work to do. But we are close, and I am very confident now. The most we need is 3 wins from 6 games, and we should get that.

Nine...it's the magic number.

It will drop straight to three if we beat Arsenal - but for now it's nine.

You haven't been using this woman's sneaky trick have you?

José doesn't lose to Wenger though, so that's a moot point

I wouldn't be surprised to see Leicester grab a point to be honest. I reckon the Palace game is most likely

There's a nice pub next to the finish line at Port. So ideally I'll finish the Ironman by around 5:30, have a feed, watch the rest of my mates finish, head back to the hotel for a tub, and then head back to the pub for the 10:30 kickoff...

Not possible when you have a chip on your ankle and there's timing mats all over the course. No start = no finish

Liverpool fans are easy to spot in a triathlon. They strap their chip to their shoulder...

 

[saint.nick]

Lmao, as soon as I saw the word chip I knew you'd bring Liverpool into it :lol:

 

[Jimbo]

Well, you keep tossing up those short ones outside off-stump...

Is there a triathlon thread in this site where we can discuss this?

 

[Twizzle]

you wanna discuss cricket in a triathlon thread ?

 

[saint.nick]

Nah, triathlon in a cricket thread actually

Is there a triathlon thread in this site where we can discuss this?

'Other sports' would be the place for it I suppose

Bamfordinho wins player of the year.

Well deserved too

I'd still ideally like to see him stay another year with 'Boro if they get up though

Champions in wait coming to Sydney in June.

Gareth is having a hard time keeping everyone under control

That'll be one hell of a night out

 

[Haffa]

Haha I was informed by the 25 "new" members overnight and the 15 odd in my inbox.

 

[Jimbo]

Bloody plastics...

I reckon preference should be given to people who did the Perth trip
