Cerdic and I Do The Tri... and Survive!

Much more to come, in wordy detail, of course, but for now, yes, I did the New England Danskin Triathlon yesterday and not only completed it, but improved on my time in every segment from the one I did in 2004.

Here's a shot of my and me trusty two-wheeled barbarian steed after the race (the medal around my neck is just the finisher's medal that everyone who completes the race gets):

Thanks to everyone who posted, e-mailed or phoned in the good wishes! More soon, when it's not so hot and I'm not sitting in Panera with Wiley waiting patiently in the car...
