435086 2006-03-02 20:09:00 Anyone off to Taupo for the Ironman. When I say to someone I'm off to the Ironman for the weekend, they look at me sideways (I'm not a sporty type). I'm with the "media" :cool:

As an aside, I was loading a new SUSE box yesterday and was loading some packages and when I came back to see what it was up to, the pc had locked up. That was it, Grub reported an error 17 and there was no way I could boot from the hard drive. Looks like the hard drive just packed up. I can't format it or anything. :waughh: :(

435087 2006-03-02 20:51:00 Are you only after help from people going to the Ironman? Or was that just general conversation?

And I wont be at the Ironman.

Well, It was a pathetic attempt for some dialogue about the Ironman, thats all.

Anyway the weather had a major impact on the event. The cold southerly blew straight into Taupo off the lake. It was SO windy. They cancelled the swim part and did a half distance cycle and run leg.

It would have been stupid to go out in it. The really strong swimmers probably would be ok, but they would be saving the rest.
