Warm down:

Talked with Scott K, he killed it with a time of 1:13:46. His 40-44 age group is competive and this time put him in 8th place in category.

Event comments:

First race in 45-49 AG, very happy with results considering there wasn't much of a taper. This age group (45-49) was not real competive but I'm still extremly happy to take home my first piece of tri hardware with the 3rd place in category.
