I suppose eggs laid in such a place would be Donauaueier giving seven consecutive vowels.

Decatriathlon is more nuts than you might think. It's often a pool swim. That's a whole bunch of lengths.

That's just silly.

Good work on the seven vowels, Chris.

[as an aside there are two flavours of decatriathlon which are rotated every other year . 10 stupidly long triathlons in a row one year I.e. Swim, bike, marathon run, swim, bike, marathon run, swim etc x10.. The other years are a triathlon but with 3 really long legs 38k swim, 1120 mile run followed by 262 mile run]
