  • Comments: I was very surprised to find out that I was moved into the 45-49 age group even though I will not be 45 until November. By the looks of the other athletes I'm not sure this gave mne any advantage what so ever ha...ha... I'm hooked. As soon as I improve on my swim, look for me in the Tri series next year.

  • Comments: I had high hopes that I will complete this race with a PR. I was on track for the first 2 leg of the race but my bad turn of event prevented me to realize my goals. I am very hard on myself and could not forgive myself for not taking good care of my last run. I guess it was meant to be -- a lesson learned. After thought -- I am proud of my 5k and my bike time. I had a blast. I wish I could run my pace on the 10k. In terms of endurance, I had plenty. Just lady luck was not on my side. I guess my bad feelings about flat tired came through -- LOL -- damn knee. I hope i did not damage it. I will have to see if it heal up in 2 days. It still hurts... and my ego is bruised. 2 more race to put in my PR. Gotta long this!! By the by, thank you for those who cheered me on .... I surely needed it...Cheers! Note: Overall rank including triathlon is 149/280. Small turnout :(
