Do: Check with jajones to find out if what you are doing is worthwhile to be doing.

Don't: Do anything else.

Yes, that is just as dorky as wearing your spandex and team jersey for the rest of the afternoon

Yeah, that jumped the shark after you invented it years ago

DO NOT!!........eat questionable Shrimp Vindaloo, the night before a race. And, yes - it was as awful as you can imagine......which is why I have a rule - never eat seafood before a race.

And if you're doing a 12 hour race, there's even time for a beer run mid-race :wink: :lol: :D

Yes, during last year's Addison Oaks 12 hour, at the midway point, I got off my bike, got into my car, headed to the S&M Market down the street, and returned with a sixer of Negra Modelo and a sack of chips :D
