Lance

I thought Lance's facebook update today was worth sharing. He's either a cocky jerk or he just says it how it is, either way he isn't a cheater:

St13 done. Wet and cold. And slightly boring. Can't remember a day this cold in the TdF. Ever. Team was solid and controlled things well and big surprise, had antidoping control @ the finish. Keep looking, nothing to find except hard work & sacrifice. Never was, never will be.

Also worth sharing is a very in-depth and insightful race report from Ironman Korea by a good buddy of mine Chris Pickering. He's quickly becoming a competitive long course athlete while I'm trying to make it in the equally unforgiving world of elite-level short course, makes for some great training discussions. Definitely worth a read to get a glimpse of the immense challenge of Ironman and the mental fortitude required to survive the day. Here it is, hope you don't mind me sharing Chris.
