I Entered My First Triathalon


Now before you laugh silly calm down. Not that kind of triathlon.

In an effort to raise money for our 5th semester party, a traditional formal banquet-type party to celebrate our finishing on the island, we are having a triathlon, of sorts. Our class representatives have convinced a local bar, Fathoms, to host the 2 day "athletic" event. Rumors persist that those same said representatives have forsaken their respective apartments and reside full-time at the bar, and their full-time patronage has had sway with the owners, but I for one will give them the benefit of the doubt. The events?

Beer Pong
Pool
Darts

Yes that's right, in an effort to shrug of the stigma of attending a Caribbean medical school, we have decided to go the high road. No longer will people be able to point their finger and accuse us of being hard partying-underachievers that did nothing but sleep on the beach and drink for 2 years. No, sir. Not us.

The format for the triathlon is pretty simple, it will be a team event consisting of 2 person teams and begins tonight with the beer pong event. I have teamed up with "Jersey" Pete Scheinder. (although there is no word if he will show up sleeveless, carrying his protein powder, and adorned with his "child-molester" mustache- as he did for the infamous dodgeball tournament a couple semesters ago- see photo)

Events begin tonight at 8pm and the pool and darts events will begin tomorrow at 8pm.

Stay tuned for results and photos. Wish us luck!
