• Comments: This has become my favorite race of the year. Even though it conflicts with a local cyclocross race, I anticipate doing this duathlon instead of the 'cross race for upcoming years. Very well organized and attended by some very competitive athletes. Before the race, I had figured that I wanted to complete the race in 1:11 or less. I knew that I would have to hustle to make it, but I figured I had a chance. I was a little disappointed that I didn't make my time goal, but I was pretty darn close. Also, I wasn't sure how to note this - there were five women in my age group; the first three were the overall top three women, so my first place in age group is really by default. (Did I mention that this race draws some serious athletes?!)
