| Millipede Doing Intervals (Photo courtesy of Ryan) Man alive! That 26.2 meter marathon is a GRIND! I was doing stellar time until I hit a wall at the 20-meter mark. It was all I could do to tell my legs (and legs and legs and legs and legs and legs...ah, you get my drift!) to keep going. On sheer will power alone, I finished. 14 hours, 23 minutes, 38 seconds. Not anywhere near elite performance, but a personal best nonetheless. And I finished. That's what truly counts! I FINISHED! Up next: The Hawaiian Multi-Pede Triathlon! I'm fine-tuning my training...a second interval session each week at Kapaa High School; running in sand at Kealia Beach; hill training up on the Sleeping Giant; and LSD (long, slow distance) running on Sundays around Lihue Airport. Just wait and see! The Kenyan centipedes CAN EAT MY DUST! |

GETTING UP HERE WAS JUST THE HALF OF IT!

| Dragon on a Telephone Pole Seattle's Chinatown/International District (Hawaiian Odysseus photo) Pssst...hey, you there...yeah, you! Look, I'm a little embarrassed about something, and I could use your help. Sure, I look ferocious and everything. I'm a dragon, after all. And when I leaped up and climbed this pole, oh, what an impressive sight that was! Drew a lot of oohs and aahs from the locals. But, truth be told, I'm not good with heights. In fact, I'm just a wuss! So...I was wondering, my friend. Could you, uh, call 911 for me? I know the fire department rescues cats from trees. Uh, could you ask the Fire Chief if they do dragons? |
