As much as I love this time, in my heart of hearts I believe that the course was short. I do not go that fast in the water without some other means of propulsion.

New max HR achieved on the run up the hill. I was already high getting out of the water b/c I was going pretty hard and going vertical always makes my HR go through the roof. The long uphill run helped me reach a new high of 194.

This morning I had the unusual situation of being able to look up the road and see the entire front end of the race. I was 14th man on the road at that point (yes, I counted). That doesn't include all the people who started behind me and were actually "ahead" of me, but that was still a neat feeling. =

Pack up and ship out.

Event comments:

It's fun to be able to do a race like this and then be able to do other things for the rest of the day, but I still think I'm better suited for longer races. My AG place was worse than WLH, but I think my overall place was better. Or maybe it's just that I would rather race long course. Anyway, I had a sh#tload of fun and that's why I came out today. And that's why I do this, ultimately.
