• Comments: Felt sorry for SuperSprint, a group of their marshalls bailed, leaving the registration and numbers writing queues too long. I stood in line for 20mins. I'll take my own sharpie next time! But really, I loved it and am back in the swing of things. I loved that I could tuck in on the bike using the aerobars and I was pretty happy overall. Oh, and I got a medal for coming 1st in the Athena category - for which I sort of feel guilty. Am I cheating by going in Athena (70kg+)? I'm 80kg and have NO hope of going sub 70kg (trust me - I'd be a stick). If I had competed in my age group, I would have come 15th - not bad either.
