That was how dedicated there coach was as a swimmer from middle school through high school. No pushing needed from his parents. Morning practice was not optional. He knows what it takes to succeed in a tough sport. HARD WORK!!!

If you haven’t had a chance to watch @BooneSwimming you’re missing out. These girls are killing it! Days when I get to school for open gym at 6:30 a.m., they have already been at it for a half hour. And then they go again AFTER school! #toreadortough @BooneActivities

Any athlete that spends a considerable amount of time dedicated to an ultra event can relate. I haven’t had that for a couple years.

BREAKING:

There seems to be a trend of high profile people denouncing God....

So let me say this:

God is the WAY, TRUTH, and THE LIGHT!

God is my Savior and I would be NOTHING WITHOUT HIM!

I am proud of my faith and will always declare him KING!

I am NOT ASHAMED!

RT!

Completed the Copper Triangle ride today with Connie. Three passes. Great way to end our stay in Summit county CO. Read about this great route with this link. https://t.co/Q83sbMmmaL

[Joe Mann @mannpoweredbike]

Loaded road and gravel bike for trip to CO. Forgot warbird front through axle skewer. Not a bike shop In Frisco, Dillion or Silverthorne has a 15mm in the right length. #nogravel #commonskewers #missthegoodolddays

The findings of a new study that looked at the heart of a swimmer vs. the heart of a runner underscored how sensitive our bodies are to different types of exercise https://t.co/3pzTJpbRHB

The real RAGBRAI food is pie and Amish baked goods. No need for packing food.

[Jeremy Ware @jeremy_ware]

Fuel packed for @RAGBRAI_IOWA maybe I could get a sponsorship from @clifbar https://t.co/MC02K85lgg

How far did you ride during the Summer Solstice this year? 🤔 This was taken 5hrs into Andrew's 12hr ride having just completed a 20% climb up to the Lecht Ski Centre in the Cairngorms #gcninspiration

[Joe Mann @mannpoweredbike]

Day something or other of @RAAMRace. We are racing the clock for the Mississippi cut-off. Doing lots of math after each time station. He has the mental strength to finish just need to find the physical strength. #raam2019 #iRONmanskelton424

Start area in Betty’s lot. Lots of nervous excitement. First time for me driving to Borrego since my first time crewing in 2010. #raam2019 #ironman424

[Joe Mann @mannpoweredbike]

Let’s get this thing going. No matter how many times I have crewed this race we always seem to run out of time. Just gotta go. 1:32 PDT start time. #raam2019 #ironman424

[Joe Mann @mannpoweredbike]

Vehicles ready and passed inspection with ease. Crew chief meeting and big team meeting tonight and then ready to hit the road. #raam2019 #ironman424
