"Doing that tri got me laid so many times, it was awesome."
These were the words that Phil Mooney, (formerly known as Phil Mooney The Great, or PMTG) when asked to describe his feelings about the triathlon.
It is not clear whether Phil is referring to being laid by his girlfriend (hopefully) or other friends (maybe male ones, but probably not).
I recently sat down with Phil and discussed his triathlon experience in detail.
Me: "So Phil, what inspired you to do your first triathlon?"
Phil: "Essentially my girlfriend explained to me that I would not be receiving any of "the good stuff" if I didn't participate in this event with her. Besides that, I think I look damn good in a wetsuit."
Me: "Wetsuits usually fit better when your girlfriend carries your balls around in her purse. Moving on, how did the race develop for you?"
Phil: "I pretty much jumped into the water, swam until I nearly drowned, came out of the water in about last place-"
Me: "Let me interrupt there, was that last place in your age group, or last place overall?"
Phil: "I would have to say that it was last place overall. I was deep in the pain cave, but not really going anywhere."
Me: "Lets talk about your bike leg, how did that go for you?"
Phil: "I pretty much killed it. There isn't anything else to say."
Me: "That's a pretty bold statement, are you sure you aren't just being arrogant and kind of an A-Hole?"
Phil: "No, I'm sure. It was a typical Phil Mooney crushing performance."
Me: "Ok, now what happened on the run?"
Phil: "Well, I realized that running really hurts, and I was questioning my commitment to the event at this point. I decided to just keep going and try and make the best of it."
Me: "There is some video of the event that shows you easing up before the line, and then sprinting to cross the finish. What was going on there?"
Phil: "I wanted to prove to everyone that I was the strongest that day, and I could have literally crawled in to victory."
Me: "Weren't you passed early on the run?"
Phil: "...Yep."
Me: "So the victory celebration maybe wasn't the best idea?"
Phil: "You're a real crappy interviewer. I'm out of here."
At this point, Phil Mooney stood up, walked twelve feet into the other room, sat down, and proceeded to pout for the rest of the day. It's tough being interviewed by a roommate I guess.
More to come on this breaking story.

Hey,
So I went on this internet hiatus and also got rid of my phone (it's a long story), and at some point realized I neither have your email nor your phone number written down. So here's my email: courtney.schnepf@gmail.com
Would love to hear from you
