Buck Creek Triathlon - TriathlonSprint

I actually had a guy grab the back of my tri suit and pull me under him, then crawled over the top of me. It was pretty clear from the color of my cap that I wasn't another guy... really pissed me off... and threw off my time. Not because of the swim... just could not believe that someone would do that.

I don't know. It threw off the whole race for me.

None

Hilly -- very pretty though.

Felt good about the transition -- think that part is improving

The run is the hardest part of this event for me. Having said that, I do love it. This was by far the prettiest course we've run this year -- I don't remember (all the races have sort of melded into one) running down the levy last year; although it was hilly, it was a nice course.

Laura was sitting by the finish line with an ice pack on her knee -- she blew her ACL again -- she said it went the last mile, but she kept running. And came in first place in her division. My warm down was hugging my baby.


It was all in my head... I was still pissed at the guy during the swim.

My warm down was hugging my baby. I am so proud of her determination and her sportsmanship that however hurt I was still feeling about the bad behaviour from the guy who grabbed my suit during the swim, it all faded when I saw Laura. For me, she embodies the true heart of the sport.
