    During the working week, thou shall try to work and not read the forum every hour!!

    Plus, after a tri and the results are online thou shall ensure data is saved on your hard drive so you can slice and dice and spin your times for each discipline and transition any way you please, to guarantee a satisfactory result in at least one area!! :roll:
