| airurando | i reckon a poll to select the date on | 18:47 |
| airurando | i reckon a poll to select the date of UGJ Dublin is a good idea | 18:48 |
| airurando | Limerick and possibly Galway might also participate on the standard weekend | 18:48 |
| moylan | so a date ie a sat or sunday and maybe a start time? | 19:32 |
| airurando | moylan aye. driving this is the fact that the 02 - 04 Mar 12 weekend doesn't suit tdr112 and myself. | 19:42 |
| moylan | not sure i can make it either as mobility is still limited. | 19:43 |
| airurando | any date for the op yet? | 19:44 |
| moylan | was at clinic this week. fingers crossed. 2 years wait so far. :-/ | 19:45 |
| airurando | yeah I remember talking to you about it :( | 19:45 |
| airurando | hope the check went well. | 19:46 |
| moylan | seemed to go ok. one bit of good news was that i found that after a year or so after op i can cycle again, maybe. | 19:46 |
| airurando | that would be good. | 19:47 |
| airurando | did you cycle before? | 19:47 |
| moylan | always wanted to get a brompton folding bike | 19:47 |
| airurando | aye | 19:48 |

| airurando | http://www.triathy.ie/2012entry/ | 19:51 |
| airurando | moylan you know my body | 19:52 |
| moylan | what ever doesn't kill you makes you stronger unless it's a triatholon in which case it'll leave you knackered! :-D | 19:52 |
| airurando | baby triathlon :) | 19:52 |
| airurando | up to 11 miles on the bike now | 19:52 |
| airurando | which covers the distance of the cycle portion | 19:53 |
| airurando | remember baby traithlon... | 19:53 |
| moylan | used to cycle 7 miles from city centre to sandyford every day in 90s. on good days it was great, in bad weather it really really sucked | 19:53 |
| airurando | 400m river swim with the current.... | 19:53 |

| airurando | yip :) | 19:54 |

| airurando | just giving it a go. | 20:00 |
| moylan | it's an interesting category of sport as it favours the generalist rather than a specialist. | 20:01 |
| airurando | yeah and the triathy is a great entry level | 20:02 |
