You averaged about 24mph on the bike and that is not easy to do, much less leave anything for the run. You keep that up, and you are going to be taking a lot of hardware home in the future.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02378547566593756176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621226553428297823.post-22354674427401914402007-06-12T10:19:00.000-04:002007-06-12T10:19:00.000-04:00Did I miss the part of your report where a large p...Did I miss the part of your report where a large part of the athletes cut the corner on part of the swim? Very important detail!!<BR/><BR/>Just take a minute and look back at how far you have come in the past year. Amazing!! Next tri on a month so don’t go to mad on us and crack out too many intense workouts. Keep in mind that it is major hoottttt these days.<BR/><BR/>Normally I do not carry any fuel belts of any kind during races. Aid station should provide all the support you need during the run portion. Keep you body light during the events are smart.<BR/><BR/>Fantastic race report. You are doing great!!Gotta Run.....https://www.blogger.com/profile/03647983887882662002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621226553428297823.post-46703123126939149902007-06-12T08:56:00.000-04:002007-06-12T08:56:00.000-04:00Nicely done!

I'm proud to say I line them up in order of color and eat the "extras" until there are an even number of each color. Then, I proceed to eat them in ROYGBV order.

I think you did better then you give yourself credit for (especially on the swim part :) )<BR/><BR/>Dang are you insane? No novocaine? I did that once and only once and will NEVER ever ever do it again LOL. <BR/><BR/>How do you know I'm not spying on you?

Maybe that means I have hope for the swim part. Even the yucky parts (drinking brown water) really make me want to do one that much more! I totally can't wait! <BR/><BR/>Awesome job on the whole thing!
