Peeking under the Kona Skirt

I blissfully led my life for over 30 years without knowing my own ignorance about triathlon. And now that I know, and with Kona on the horizon, I'm so excited I could just about pee my pants. Pee my pants! It's like watching a reality tv show when you actually know someone on the show!

And you do, too. I know it. You know it. No sense in denying. Admitting we have a problem is the first step, ya know.

So...do you want to peek up the Kona skirt? Step over to the Elf's blog -- Elizabeth Fedofsky. I've mentioned before how I love her writing and she is a bona fide PRO now! She took the plunge, so send money. She will wear your schwag for peanuts* (but probably will work harder for peanut butter). She's already been making the rounds and now has locked in with Hak over at The Outdoor Journey for Fedofsky Fridays. Check it out!

And she's there. On the ground. Hanging with uber cool triathletes, gawking at the untouchables, and sipping Kona's finest brews (coffee, of course!) ... all in preparation for the big show this weekend.

And she's posting like a fiend. So, swing over and peek up the skirt of Kona. Be sure to check out stuff from earlier this week. And then, come race day, cheer the Elf and her hubby, Chris, on to the race of their lives!

And, lastly...but certainly not leastly...the Elf is pimping herself out as a coach. I kid you not. So if you're looking for a coach that has LOADS of experience, tons of training and racing under her own belt, and (gasp) a sense of humor...well, you know what I'm getting at...

So...ENJOY!!

* But don't offer just peanuts! Offer her billions of dollars and tv appearances. She's worth it!

Aw shucks, you guys are making me want to cry. Thanks for all the support and if you all shout loud enough on Saturday we might just hear you. I will be pro next year. This year I am still age grouper at large in Kona.
