Event comments:

I raced as clydesdale and won the division. I have never won a division or age group except on a relay. Even though it was the mini sprint and I raced clydesdale I gotta say I am thrilled to win a division. 10 years of racing, from mini's to ironman and back down to mini's, but hey I won!

Fun day, nice race.

Only issue I have is the race timing had issues. My total time is 47 seconds longer than my watch and others in my category said the same thing. They went back and adjusted the times, but it didn't change the total.
