TRI Page #3

This bike is held together

by one of the lightest

and stiffest aerodynamic

carbon frames on the market.

- That's interesting, but

it doesn't have a seat.

- This is the saddle.

In fact, this is the most

comfortable, powerful saddle

that you can get for this bike.

- So maybe it's a discount bike.

How much?

- This, uh, this

model's around $20,000,

but depending on

what you choose,

you could get a great bargain.

We have some as low as $2,200.

- This bike is $20,000.

- You have been really

helpful, and I appreciate it,

but I think this is

just a little bit

out of our price range.

- You know, we, we might

have something in the back

if you're okay

with it being used.

- Yeah.

- Used sounds good.

- Used is good.

- Used sounds like

totally us, yeah, used.

- Sounds like you.

- Okay, all right.

- Hello team.

Today we are wearing

very funky shoes.

That is because we are going

to concentrate on clipping

and unclipping from your bike.

If you do not unclip correctly,

that is what we call

a slow motion crash.

You'll find out what

that means soon enough.

Now, newbies, let's team

up with a mentor who can

help you through the process.

Let's have fun and stay

safe out there guys.

- Hey, I didn't get a

chance to introduce myself

at the pool, I'm Skyler.

- I'm not very good at teaching.

- Nice chat.

- I apologize for my

sister, she normally,

well, she normally isn't this.

- Hardcore.

We'll go with hardcore.

- So let's start by clipping in.

- Yeah.

How hard can that be?

Son of a bike!

Piece of cake.

- There's just so much stuff.

You know, we tried on

like 12 different bras

and they're all supposed

to do different things.

- Let me see.

I mean, honey, look.

Don't all bras just kinda?

You know?

Lock it in?

- They're very

specialized, honey.

- Hey.

Look.

You know how much I love you.

You know that I support

you in everything

that it is that you want to do.

But it just seems like, to

me, that you're spending

a lot of money on this thing.

- What's that supposed to mean?

- Look, it's just I,

I just want to make sure you

can return all this stuff,

you know, when--

- when what?

- Nat, you don't have

the best track record

when it comes to

completing things.

I don't want this to

be Johns Hopkins again.

We just paid that off.

Honey, look.

- You know why I didn't

finish med school.

- That's not what I meant.

I'm sorry.

- It's not fair, Rex.

- All right, couch it is.

- This is the last stage

of the triathlon, the run.

At this point, it's all about

your feet, you and the road.

Seasoned triathletes will

tell you this is usually

the point when you start

talking to yourself.

That voice inside

your head that starts

to sprinkle in doubt.

Become acquainted with

the voice in training,

so that on that day, you'll

be ready to shut it down.

- I am

Jack's therapist.

- People run at

different speeds.

Just do what feels

comfortable to you.

- I'm Jack's complete

lack of surprise

you've never seen fight club.

- Oh.

Yeah, I saw the beginning of it.

- Yeah, of course you did.

- I did.

- I'm sure he means well.

- I know he does,

it's just difficult.

I'm thinking that he doesn't

believe that I can do this.

- Well sometimes, the

people that love us the most

don't always know how to help.

- Well, he's helped himself

to sleeping on the couch

for a little while.

- Can I give you a little piece

of advice from an old man?

- Shoot.

- It's cliche, I know,

but there's a reason

cliche exists.

Never go to bed angry

with the people you love.

I vaguely remember the feeling

of being angry with my wife.

It's like a memory of a memory.

But for the life of me,

i couldn't tell you what

any of the fights were about.

Look at me gettin'

all sentimental.

We're supposed to be running.

- Yeah, you're right.

Let's go.

Top of the hill.

- Deal.

- Come on, old man.

- Christy?

Hey, are you okay?

Oh wow.

Should you, you wanna sit down?

Should I get you some water?

- I'm fine.

- Damn, that's a lot of puke.

Hardcore.

Natalie, what are you doing?

- A cancer

diagnosis can be frightening,

but the treatment

doesn't have to be.

New state of the art technology

allows radiation treatment

options that are

noninvasive and effective.

Imrt uses specially

calibrated concentrated blast

of radiation that targets

the tumor without harming

the surrounding tissue.

We're able to treat

cancer more aggressively

than ever before with

fewer side effects.

To learn more about imrt.

- How does it work again?

- I think they fire photon

torpedoes at that thing.

Make it so.

- Seriously.

- I don't know.

I'm not a photon beamologist.

- Is it safe?

- That's what they say.

They say it's noninvasive

and effective,

so nothin' to worry about.

- Thanks.

Hey.

Cheers.

- Cheers.

- It's official.

- Would anyone like to

start today's session off

with a mission moment?

- What's

a mission moment?

- Well, sometimes

before training,

we share a personal story

about what got us started

with this.

A person or event

that inspires us.

- When Barbara was diagnosed,

I became angry.

Angrier than I've ever been.

I lashed out at friends

and family alike.

I became unpleasant, mean.

Subconsciously, I wanted

them to suffer too.

Barbara could tell.

She knew.

And as her prognosis

became worse,

I became angry.

And then one night,

she said to me,

"don't do that."

She said, "this is not the

man I fell in love with.

"This is not the man

i promised to spend

"the rest of my life with."

Today, I ride for Barbara,

because in my darkest hours,

she never let me lose myself.

- Car.

- Car.

- Watch out, get to the side.

- Geez, sorry.

- Today we are gonna work on

sighting and close contact.

Swimming in a pool is very

different from swimming

in open water.

Here you can follow the line

at the bottom of the pool,

but when you look

down in the potomac,

there will be nothing,

so you have to make sure

you keep sight of the

buoys to guide you.

- How hard can that be?

- You're forgetting about

all the other swimmers.

When you go out in waves it's

like swimming in a mosh pit.

- Oh.

So, how're we gonna

simulate that?

- So I think I'm gonna

get the hamburger.

Oh, or the wings.

Maybe both.

- Actually, mind if I go first?

- Does it matter?

- For one thing, I am a lady.

- Huh, since when?

- Rex.

- Oh, they have

sweet potato fries.

- Scott was giving me

some, uh, diet advice

to help us through this

intense physical beating

that you've signed us up for.

- Oh, Scott was

giving you advice.

- Yes, and he was saying--

- wait, wait, wait, wait.

Who's Scott?

- Scott is on our team.

Skyler wants to make

him her boo-thang.

- Oh.

Get it, sky.

- Just make him happy.

- I hate both of you.

Anyway, so yeah, he was saying--

- oh my god, i

didn't see the calzones.

- When somebody orders, it

influences the whole table.

So since pecs over here
