What are you training for?

So, since I'm on my winter schedule at the gallery now and have a few extra days off a week till March, I was downtown doing errands mid-morning. I stopped into Midcoast Multi Sport, a local triathlon store, to pick up some Hammer Gel. As I set the jug of Gel down on the counter, Doug, the friendly manager, asked "so, what are you training for?" You mean, people don't buy big jugs of Hammer Gel just to gulp down for fun?! Ummm.... rasperberry goo.... tasty! (By the way, the answer to what are you training for is the upcoming Feb. 3 Cape Elizabeth 10-miler.)
