At the 2001 Ironman USA in Lake Placid (NY), the Central Park Track Club crew of  Ross Galitsky, Ramon Bermo, Juana Bermo, Ross Galitsky, Aubin Sullivan, Isaya Okwiya and Shula Sarner stayed together in the dormitories that weekend.  So many remarkable things happened there that a trivia quiz has been constructed.  The first person to correctly idenitfy all the people will get an Official Finishing Ironman USA T-shirt (size medium).  You did not have to be there in order to know the answers --- everyone was behaving in character!  Send your entry to Roland.


1. Did one of the "roommates", after cheering for the last finisher in the race, actually walked 10 miles to the dormitories that we all stayed in at Saranac Lake or did he/she just "commuted" by running between Lake Placid and Saranac?

2. Who is that unspeakably horrible person who broke a thermostat in the dormitory suite where we all stayed? And did the heat reached over 100 degree temperature?

3. Which of the "roommates" insisted on using bathtub 4 times during the night after the race?

4. Which of the "roommates" used an unusual (for him/her) form of fast propulsion that race day?

5. Which of the "roommates" used a usual (for him/her right now) form of slow propulsion that race day?

6. Which of the "roommates" propelled himself/herself with effort for two?

7. Which of the "roommates" consumed a pint of ice-cream almost every day there? (No, Scott Willett was not there)

8. Which of the "roommates" had been spending time among the professional triathletes?

9. The most intriguing of all: which "roommates" slept on the top of which "roommates"?

10.  The most obvious of all: which "roommate" is the one who offered the t-shirt as the prize for this quiz?  (Hint: He/she clearly wants to keep this ugly t-shirt)
