Before the game the Gunther's hosted a spin session on the veranda. It was about 10 below zero, but Coach Troy had the Gear West Tri Club "Sweatin' to Spinervals". That's IronLaura, Dia, Marz Racer, and Steve below.
Lake Minnewashta is in the background, where a few minutes later two wild coyotes ran across. (Durn varmints!) Here are IronLaura and Helen toasting their martinis-in-styrofoam.
Eric, TaconiteBoy, and Greg watching the game:
After the game (so who won, anyway?) We ran out back, swam in the snow a bit, then hustled over to the hot tub. Seems everything gets turned into a triathlon... Below are Jeff, me and IronLaura. It seriously was 10 below and that is steam coming off our bodies.
Below is our Cheerleader Tryouts picture: Helen, me, IronLaura, Steve, Jeff and Greg.

Below Steve is verifying the temperature. That's our own Koach Kris' picture on the wall. He couldn't be here with us, so in true Minne-sow-tah fashion, we put him on a stick... He was at a coaching clinic in Green Bay.
Many of you know TriJack is coming to Zurich with us.... Buddy, did you know what you were getting into? Will you last a week with these people????

you have so much fun!
i like how you've integrated triathlon so much into your social events!
not to mention, ahem, those are some nice swimsuit shots!
Looks like a crazy party. We're going to Tahoe this week but I definitely won't be out in the snow in my swimsuit!
You guys/gals are one crazy crew.
Gotta love it.
Note to self:
Get transferred to Minnesota!
You guys are great!
Those are some great pictures Jenny. If I didn't live so far away from the Gunthers I might have joined you for all the fun.
You guys are NUTS! I love it.
thank God it'll be june and the water will be (better be) in it in liquid form! no swimsuit snowangels from this southern boy...
great pics!
Jenny, so, what is all that white stuff? I'm confused.
Sersly, though. Swimsuits?? A thong????!!! You could freeze some, er . . . schtuff. Important recreational, wobbly bits schtuff.
One never knows what triathletes do to get so steamy.
Oh My! I guess I should take back all the complaining I did last week when it was like 40degs in AZ! I don't know how you all survive in that cold. You are inspiring! It's beautiful and in the 70s here in sunny AZ. Now that is what I'm talking about!

omg, jenny, you all are crazy! what great pictures and that is one awesome looking pyramid!! ;-)
What a crazy bunch - looks like you all know how to have fun - but, um, didn't your parents ever teach you how to dress appropriately for playing in the snow?!?!? Y'all seem a little under dressed in swimsuits ;)
btw - my pillow arrived yesterday and it is even better in person!! thx again. :D
From the Florida guy,,,,you all are nuts!!!! Us Florida folks put our parkas on when it hits 45 degrees!
Minnewashta? I know where that lake is. Isn't the turnoff just past hwy 19 as you head west on hwy 7? I spent lots of time on Tonka back in the day. Looks liek a great party!
