| | IRONMAN TRAINING, MISSISSIPPI-STYLE |
 | | South Mississippi, U.S.A.- Training for an iron-distance triathlon is an adventure, especially when you train on the roads, trails, and lakes of rural south Mississippi, but sometimes it can get boring. |
 | | And so it was last week that I found myself peddling through Perry County, Mississippi, home of Camp Shelby, the Mahned Bridge, and the county seat of New Augusta. |
 | | Nor did I figure into the equation that I would need to stop at a convenience store for more fluids along the way, or that folks down in Perry County don’t normally see grown men in tight shorts riding a bicycle down the highway in broad daylight. |
