Why Didn’t FitOldDog Listen To His Coach, Chris Hauth, But Then, He Finally Did, Thanks To His Ironman Triathlete Son, Nigel -> Another Kona Slot At The Texas Ironman!

No fool, like an old fool.

Chris taught me so many things, one of which was to keep pushing during the race, and “If you feel comfortable, you are going too slow.”

Chris said, “Kevin, why do you do Lake Placid every year, when you are not designed for hill climbs?” I didn’t listen. Then two days ago my son, Nigel, said, “Dad, you can transfer to the new Maryland Ironman, it’s flat, and perfect for you.”

So I did, and I felt a great feeling of relief.

Thanks Chris and Nigel.

Cheers,

Kevin aka FitOldDog
