  • Comments: An awesome course and awesome race. Too bad my work buddies bailed! The travelling made it tougher but was worth it to check out the old stomping grounds and spend some time with Kiki. First oly and was really happy with my performance despite the setbacks on the swim.

  • Comments: A little more crowded this year than last year. they added 500 more people to a 1500 person course. only time it was obvious was in transition and at the start and end of the race. I bettered my time over last year by 6 minutes which i'm thrilled about! next year i want to do a sub 3 hour race. I think it is doable. if i didn't forget my darned socks in my bag, i would have been under 3:10. ah well... quite a few of my teammates were out there so it was nice to see so many familiar faces. a few were out there cheering as well. so while jeff was not there to cheer me on as my #1 cheerleader, it was nice to see so many famailiar faces at various points along the course. because my wave was last and i'm a bit slower than my teammates, they were all done and waiting for me near the finish/in the finish chute. that was nice. and louis took a bunch of pix, as always. i look forward to coming back next year and doing much better. i really want to go sub 3 and i think

  • Comments: Somehow, I won a prize package that they gave to 13 people. It was awesome. A pair of Kswiss shoes, an xterra bag and a bunch of other stuff. I don't know how that happened. I couldn't figure out what the announcer meant when he kept yelling "and our winner is Justin." I mean, I was happy with my time but I was pretty sure I hadn't won the race. One of the volunteers had to explain it to me.

  • Comments: I really liked this race. Expensive, yes, but for me it was everything you could ask for in an Olympic distance tri. Plus, the fact that I accomplished two of my goals in one race (20 mph bike average and sub 50 minute 10K) was a nice bonus.
