  • Comments: This is my 4th race, and 3 of them have been this tri-the-parks series. Last week I did West Point Lake Tri and was absolutely blown away by how well it was done. This series is just not as good. I really did enjoy it, but I can tell that it is not put together as well.

  • Comments: No results available at race due to rain and computer issues. Results should be posted later today (dying to know how I placed. Should have had Gatorade on the run course (a two + hour race demands more than water). Could have had a bottle exchange on the bike course. Woohoo! 1st in my last ever Clydesdale race!

  • Comments: I met ALL of my goals: 1) Finish, 2) Have Fun, 3) Don't DFL, 4a) Finish the swim in less than 30 minutes, 4b) Finish the bike in 1:15, 4c) Finish the run in under 1 hour, 5) Finish the whole shebang in under 3 hours. I had a great race. Freestyled the whole swim (breathing and sighting were great!), good bike (would have like to have hit around 18.5 - 19 mph on the bike), and a better than expected run (<1 hour was a goal but not something I thought I'd be able to attain).

  • Comments: Overall, I was a little disappointed with my time, though I did race my race, and it was comfortable and easy. I wasn't DFL, but not far from it. If anything I was disappointed in the run. Have to spend more time running.
