  • Comments: I had a pretty good heal injury right after Longhorn last year and didn't get back to training until around later May/early June this year. Given the fact that I dropped almost 2 minutes from last year and my run is in pretty much the same place as it was last year, I think I did OK. I need to continue my training though so I am ready for Redman next month. It's a fun event right in my backyard. This was the third year for the TOTH and the third time I have competed in it. I plan to continue doing this event as long as they have it and hopefully continue to knock time off. I've gone from a 1:34 to a 1:14 and now a 1:12. Gotta get under 1:10 next year.

  • Comments: So even though I placed second in my age group, the guy who was first was actually 3rd overall. So this bumped me up to 1st in my AG. I had wanted to place in my AG ever since I started doing triathlons in March. This has been truly amazing for me since last year I was so out of shape, I could barely swim 100m or run 2 miles without getting winded. To have such a turnaround has been truly amazing.
