Riding my bike on the Queen Kaahumanu Highway seeing the Kona Hawaii Airport control tower is a cool sight #kona2026 #podiumorbust #hotlava

I ran the Virtual Flying Pig Marathon today on the bike trail. It was terribly hot and humid. This was my 9th #runflyingpig looking forward to 2022.

@BobMcDonnell1 I was registered for Maryland 2020 which cancelled, so Ironman sent me a link last Friday to choose a 2021 race by 9/11. The email said Lake Placid has limited availability, so I jumped on it early. Hope to see you there!
