  • Comments: That wraps up the three race whirl wind tour. 1-1-2...I'll take it. After the race I waited around for results and the penalty sheet and sure enough, there I was with a 5.10f position penalty. In the grand scheme of things it didn't make a bit of difference as I finished 2nd and even with the 2 minute penalty, I was still in second. I knew before the race that it was going to take a 2:08 to win my AG and I came up just short (2:10 + 2)because of my labored run. I have to say that I couldn't be happier with the end to this Tri season. Best of all, my leg (the injury) feels great. There is not even a remnant of pain or discomfort coming from that area during these last few weeks. Another big benefit is that I'm not at all burnt out. I'm excited to start really running again and build up some fitness and speed for next year. So let's talk about what's up next. Had a talk with Stover and I'm going to go unstructured for about a month. Running everyday and dropping swim and bike to 2-3x

  • Comments: Good race, a little pricey but well run and overall a good value for anyone in the LA area. A tough field too - Hunter Kemper did not even medal!
