  • Comments: The race was fine, as are most of Team Magic's races. I wished they would have let the Olympic distance racers go first instead of them having to wait an hour for the sprint racers to start, especially on a day where the heat index was going to be so high. I certainly don't blame my bad performance on the heat, but it would have been nice to be done an hour earlier in the morning. Also, there were a couple of drink stations that ran out of water for us BOPers. They did go get more ice and water, but it was so very hot that missing any drink station made it a little tougher. It may sound like I am down about my performance. This was my first Oly and the longest race I have ever completed. I am super-stoked about my swim and I know that I am approaching being a MOP on the swim, which is something I thought I would never say. I am disappointed in my biking, but I knew my training on the bike was low this year, so I was not surprised. There are good things and bad things I learned and experience

  • Comments: Team-Magic always puts on a good race, they seemed lacking on the run course this year for some reason from a volunteer standpoint. They also had the short course competitors go first this year which put the OLY racers on the course in the heat of the day... not sure about that decision and will ask them about it. overall they still put on great events, just was a tough one for me this year.. taking a week off to re-coup and back at it for the final sprint of the season.. gotta go balls to the walls!
