It is for me. I've been pushing hard over the last few months to really go for a solid PR this year. A bit of an achilles injury may dampen my run though, we'll see how it behaves on race day.
What's more fun is that Eric and I will be part of the Runner's High/Newton booth at the <a href="http://chicagotriexpo.com/" rel="external">Multisport Expo</a> all weekend. Combined we have three booth spaces all set. We will be recording audio and video both days and will need regular age-groupers to talk to. So if you're going to the expo be sure to stop by and say hello, and who knows, you may end up on the show!

We had a incredibly great interview with Craig at Runner&rsquo;s High in the afternoon. We covered a variety of topics including rrefelctions on Hawaii 2008, preictions for 2009, and lots of coaching tips for all of us age-groupers.<br /><br /><img class="imageStyle" alt="IMG_7259" src="http://www.theagegrouper.com/blog/files/img_7259.jpg" width="480" height="360"/><br /><img class="imageStyle" alt="IMG_7245" src="http://www.theagegrouper.com/blog/files/img_7245.jpg" width="480" height="640"/><br /><br />Later that night we attended the formal presentation next door at the Metropolis ballroom hosted by NBC&rsquo;s Mike Ademle. Craig and Mike took the stage and talked all about Kona, training, the past, and the future.<br /><br /><img class="imageStyle" alt="IMG_7295" src="http://www.theagegrouper.com/blog/files/img_7295.jpg" width="480" height="360"/><br /><br />Overall it was an incredible day. Craig is a great guy who was as nice and down to Earth as any other age-grouper in at a post race party.<br /><br /><img class="imageStyle" alt="IMG_7273" src="http://www.theagegrouper.com/blog/files/img_7273.jpg" width="480" height="360"/><br /><br />Look for several episodes featuring the hours of content we acquired yesterday coming over the next month. Until then, keep tri&rsquo;n.<br /><br />-Jeff<br /><div class="js-kit-comments" permalink=""></div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>TAG Makes the top 100</title><dc:creator>jumpy@theagegrouper.com</dc:creator><category>itunes</category><category>news</category><category>Announcements</category><dc:date>2009-07-20T11:43:48-05:00</dc:date><link>http://www.theagegrouper.com/blog/files/1378027ec06e57b8107854e0e57ec510-0.html#unique-entry-id-0</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.theagegrouper.com/blog/files/1378027ec06e57b8107854e0e57ec510-0.html#unique-entry-id-0</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[We discovered some great news today as we were reviewing all the work we did over the weekend with the big site makeover: TAG has offically broken into the top 100 of its catergory in iTunes! TAG is offically listed under Sports & Recreation > Amateur. As of today we are listed as the 8th most popular in our Amateur catergory (2nd in the &ldquo;Featured&rdquo; section) and 97th overall in the bigger and broader Sports & Recreation catergory (when filtered by audio podcasts only)!<br /><br />We&rsquo;ve come a long way since August of 2007 when we aired our first, lame, episode titled &ldquo;Episode 1 - The Pilot&rdquo; where we actually talked about drug abuse in baseball most of the show. This is just another step along the way, thanks to you the listeners<br /><br /><img class="imageStyle" alt="top_97" src="http://www.theagegrouper.com/blog/files/top_97.jpg" width="435" height="356"/><br /><div class="js-kit-comments" permalink=""></div>]]></content:encoded></item></channel>
