  • Comments: The first one was truly an experience I won't forget. I was happy I finished. 11/12 in my AG? No big deal. Next race it will be. Now I have a different mind set for the next races. I want to get better....My goal is for Jekyll '09 to finish in 2:30 (33 minutes less than this year) The swim I know how to fix with a combination of changing the wetsuit and lessons to work on technique. The bike and run just need more dedication....basically listen to all that say HTFU...Transition will be at race pace, not picnic pace.... To all those who gave advice along the way...THANK YOU!!!!

  • Comments: I loved this race. I think Jekyll Island is a great place to hang out. It is the easiest course that I have ever been on although I have not been on that many. I had a GREAT TIME. I did my first brick of the year. I ran six miles at one time for the first time this year. I got to see the Turtle Conservatory release three sea turtles back into the wild. I ate at a cool restaurant. It got to enjoy a place that just has that feel good atmosphere. It was a good day in the life of Neal Phelps. ;)

  • Comments: Both of us were in 100% agreement, this was a magical experience. Jim Rainey is a class act along with the rest of the staff. The terrain is marvelous and I can't picture it going any better. It was truly an amazing experience.
