  • Comments: Another good CTA race. Low key for an IM (so I'm not sure I would want to do it as my first IM) but great for IMFL preparation. Lots of small lessons learned for November (see blog) and one big lesson on the draft rule. I'm really pleased with how the preparations are coming along.

  • Comments: Things you should know about this race: There are showers in the gym which is air conditioned for after race You or your spectators can drive to swim venue park and leave after your swim Don't trust the volunteers they kept telling me wrong information They didn't give back bike special needs but threw everything away which wasn't in the info prior to race No mile markers or paint on bike course It was a great course, good way to practice for IMFL, swag was awesome, I would do it again but not the full IM distance race as a A race as the vibe and size of field would effect me doing the full 26.2 with so few participants.

  • Comments: I am now 2/3 of an Ironman ! I am completely and utterly exhuasted but I am now pretty certain that with the rest of my training AND a proper taper I will ROCK IM Cozumel. It's a big confidence booster to know that I can do the full swim and the full bike.. all that's left is that tiny matter of a 26.2 run ;) to remember for next time: advil (I had a slight headache for a while) and my chamois cream! I can't believe I forgot it !

  • Comments: Great race with this being the 4th Columbia Tri. Assoc. event I will have participated in. This was much more low key and relaxed compared to all the others, but just as well run and organized and supported. I think it gave me some good insight into what I can expect at Florida and really did instill some confidence in being able to swim the distance considering how tought this swim was!
