I have a lot to be thankful for: every sunrise and sunset and all the time in between that I can squeeze in for my 3 fantastic kids and my wife who for some reason still puts up with me and this wonderful thing called triathlon.

I'm thankful that my body and spirit is still willing and able, for the most part, to meet every day's challenges with a measure of excitement and awe.... ain't life grand

And, I'm thankful for so many friends, everyone here included.

The list is alot longer, but I'll keep it short for here.

Happy Thanksgiving all!!!

awesome! great thread. I'm thankful for friends, family, my health, this site and the relationships that I'v made through it, my dog (who helps me balance the work and play), and just the opportunity and freedom to do and pursue my passions.

Wow! Where do I begin?? I have to say everything. The good and the bad. Cause without the bad we cannot appreciate when we have the good and how much it means to us. Also, we are just so lucky we live in such a great place as the Americas that allow us the freedom and pleasure to persue our interests (like tris etc.) without the fear of anything. We truly are wealthy and lucky nations.

What is everyone doing for training on Thanksgiving?

I have a 10k race (an annual run in town that should be pretty competitive). Then I have a 30 min swim, a 60 minute bike and finally will finish off later in the evening with a 45 minute weight lifting session.

Somewhere in the middle of that I need to get some turkey!

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Cheers! Like the many good people who've posted above, I'm deeply thankful for my beautiful family, my friends, the sport of triathlon, my love of the law, and of course, the gorgeous Bay Area:

I am thankful,

for my daughters, Amber and Corinne.
They inspire me to be a better person everyday.

for my loved ones and the rest of my family.

for my friends, the ones I have met and those that are virtual.

for my ability to make friends, and make smiles.

for events so I can meet new people, and talk their ears off.
(you have had a year to recover Anton :D )

for my health, and my ability to keep active.

for all the fun of posting on trifuel.

for chocolate GU, cool whip and the 'TGGW' yeah baby!

for the Ashenfelter Classic 8k which I do on Thanksgiving morning, and can have a guilt free meal later.

Like everyone else-I'm thankful for my friends and family. Also, athough I may get frustrated with not losing a few extra pounds here and there-I'm sooo thankful for my health and my body and all the pounding it puts up with. I feel so fortunate that I can do this great sport and get up the next day and do it again! No workouts for me tomorrow-taking a break and it's going to be horrible weather up here in the Northeast!

I am thankful for:

my amazing children and wife who puts up with all my training. How did I get so lucky?

for my health and my families health.

for being able to teach and coach some of the greatest kids ever.

for finally having the drive to begin triathlons and conquering a lot of self-doubt along the way.

for continuing to have the drive to wake up each morning and train.

for the incredible way a long bike ride or a 100 laps in the pool make me feel when I am finished.

Happy Thaksgiving.

It is 40 degrees and pouring rain, so 1 hour on the trainer this morning.

I'm thank ful for still breathing coming from a guy that has died twice people take this for granted ALOT!!!
... My wife and family
... Every day that I get to spend doing things I love with the people I love
