Drink and eat

What limited your ability to perform faster:

too many races in succession during the previous week. Ran an offroad tri 14 Aug, a 5K race 15 Aug, a 5k 16 Aug and a 10K 17 Aug. Nope, not as young as I used to be, need a little more recovery time.

Event comments:

I really enjoy the Senior games as it pits us old timers against folks closer to our on ages, the camaraderie and attitude is so awesome.
