  • Comments: There were a total of 4 us of wearing Mullets for this race. JC won the female overall and James was by far the BEST Mullet Man ever! Why? Here's why: He flew in from Ca the day before so I let him ride the C'dale Slice. Not having bike shoes, we put flat pedals on the bike (it's a sin...I know). Well, he didn't want to have the pedals cut into his running flats, so he decided he was going to ride in sandals. That's right...Sandles! It get's better. Apparently, as he was riding (with his budweiser can in the Bento box) he passed a guy on a P3C with a disc wheel and aero helmet. The guy looks over and said, "Oh FU$% NO. I don't think so". The guy takes off and James ends up passing him a couple of miles down the road. Did I mention that he also had on the mullet under the helmet? So he swam one armed holding the beer out of the water. Then he biked with the beer in sandals and a mullet on. Finally, he ran with the beer and stopped to pose for Nancy at the finish line.

  • Comments: This was all our first Triathlon ever and a fun way to start with a 3rd place trophy and 4th place overall among teams. Goal is to improve for next year and teach those male teams that were 20 years younger to respect their elders! Great info leading into the race by Manatee and others much appreciated. Great race, proper balance between fun and competition though sad to see at least one take advantage of relaxation of monitoring to gain competitive advantage for a trophy. Watch out for the Pasty-White Old Guys in 2009!

  • Comments: This is my favorite race. I think they improved on a couple of things and its still not a tight ship but hey, its a bar putting on a race okay. Hung with friends and drank alot of beer. Enjoyed meating the rock star Marvarnet and his mullet heads and was also very happy to see J D Wright complete his first race.
