July 24, 201313 yr Event one of the Games is complete. This was the pool event. 2 time defending champ Rich Froning is off to a bad start finishing in 30th. Rookie Jordan Troyan destroyed the field taking the win. It doesn't hurt that he was an All-American swimmer in college.
July 24, 201313 yr You'd think they could do a live stream of the row event instead of the lame computer graphic.
July 24, 201313 yr You'd think they could do a live stream of the row event instead of the lame computer graphic. Watching someone row for 21,000+ meters would be mind numbing. I assume their doing the graphic so you can just check in every now and then to get updates. At a 2:00 pace it will take them close to 1 1/2 hours to finish. Just doesn't make for good viewing.

You can barely read the screen too.

July 25, 201313 yr Awesome morning for a jog. Woke up and it was 60 degrees so I had to hit the pavement. Knocked out 7 miles in 54:54, 7:50 pace. Great start to the day!

Great start to the day![/quote'] 7 miles sounds like an early end to my week. It's off to do some chest and tris this morning and maybe 3 miles if I've got the time.
July 25, 201313 yr Down to 220 now. Still not really hitting the gym very much. Need to work on that. Amazing what a decent diet can do for you. Down to 218 (as of yesterday) with a bad last few weeks. I'm pleased with that. My new goal now is 210.
