The triathlon coach that I have been working with, Rich Srauss of Endurance Nation, says we need to do "Cool Stuff" with all of the fitness that we get from all of the Ironman training.

So taking the grandkids (Alex & Corbin) for a ride in the trailer behind my bike, definitely falls in that category.  This was the first time to take them both this year, so it was a little bigger production getting ready.  (I had taken Corbin on Primary Election day in early February just before the tornadoes surrounded us).  But after we got rolling, they had a great time.

Alex would tell Corbin, get ready, this is a big downhill and it will be fast (29 mph max).  As we would go down the hills, they would put their hands up in the air and scream ... like they were on a big roller coaster ...
