dracs Posted September 23, 2011 Share http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/more/09/21/Lance-Armstrong-XTerra.ap/index.html#ixzz1YcfkxB2E extract from this on the Caveman Stoltz is tough as they get. Consider the 2009 XTERRA in Richmond when he offered to move a stray buoy in the James River just three minutes before the race only to gash his foot on a rusty steel girder. A first-aid crew quickly wrapped it in gauze and plastic and wanted to rush him to the hospital. When a fellow pro yelled, "Race starts in 1 minute," Stoltz didn't think twice; he jumped back in the water. A volunteer doctor changed the bandages and applied antiseptic after Stoltz finished the swim and transitioned to his bike. The doc jumped in again as Stoltz was first off the bike and headed to the run. "It was like a pit stop at NASCAR where the cars come in, they change tires and fuel up ... and off he goes," Nicholas recalled. Stoltz ended up winning, but needed seven stitches and later surgery when the gaping wound became infected. He spent three days in the hospital but raced three weeks later. "He was `Caveman' before that, but that totally cinched it," Nicholas said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TNT1 Posted September 23, 2011 Share “Everybody is buzzing about who’s going to do what, and everybody has an opinion … because of the Lance factor,” said Trey Garman, vice president of XTERRA, which promotes the races. “Lance has got amazing credentials, but what he doesn’t have on his resume is a shorter race. This is a 2 1/2-hour, all-out sprint.” Is this guy retarded? As a junior, Lance was in the top 10 worldwide (including seniors) at the sprint distance triathlon.
