The Inner Sanctum

Welcome to the DCR Inner Sanctum.


Rule #1:  Family time and spousal beration trump. No questions asked.


Rule #2:  Gloves off at race time.

 

Rule #3:  Double stopwatch alarms for all early-morning workouts.


Rule #4:  Team members will be immediately expelled from DCR for crying, unless they are crying secondary to a injury.  If the injury is bloodless, you're out!

 

Rule #5:  Hugging, back-slapping, and other same-sex safe-sex signs of emotion, affection, or support are occasionally acceptable...but watch it!

 

Rule #6:  No jackets on race day (unless you're worried about your panties getting wet).

 

Rule #7:  Hammer down, leave the lung.

 

Rule #8:  Wetsuit or not, Sandman starts in the back of the pack during an open water swim until further notice.

 

Rule #9:  Marking your transition spot is a good idea.

 

Rule #10:  Wear socks if you're running more than 5K.

 

Rule #11:  Luxury boxes are the bomb, no question, but true fans are on da' floor.

 

 


 

OK, for real ... Here's the 2006 timeline for the boys of summer.

Fishing Bay Memorial Day Weekend: Little Sue run on Sunday, May 28, is first fitness outing for the budding duo.

Following weeks: TD tracks down CW email address via AMW. Several email exchanges ensue discussing common interests, swim meets, sports news (JJ Redick's DUI and poetry), and fitness.

June 20, 2006: Great viewing of Miami Heat winning NBA Finals in Mantown.

Cville June 25, 2006: Rainy sprint tri at Walnut Creek. CW competes.  TD spectates with Isabel and Eloise in tow. TD later spotted as
unauthorized prowler in transition area looking at bikes.

June 29, 2006: Sugar Hollow ride from 3593 on AMW bike with gel pad and all. First bike a success even with running shoes (can still hear the squeak of the rubber sole on the crank).

July 22, 2006: 3Sports sprint tri in Richmond. TD maiden voyage. Smashing success all the way around. Feeling the magic for the dynamic duo.

August 14, 2006: WWE Raw for 4 boys on a Stand By Me evening, complete with late night walk from U Hall lot to Oak Circle garage. Sandman and Ticketmaster stage names make debut.
