  • Comments: I sold myself short and probably missed placing by 3.5 seconds because of that. Lesson learned! Despite that it was one of my better races and I met all goals but running in under 35 minutes. OTOH, I exceeding OA time goal by almost 3 minutes. Too bad it was not 3 min and 1 second.... Arrrrgggggggghhhhhh!!!!!! Would have taken first in Athena (13 contenders) - both 40+ and overall (22 total contenders).

  • Comments: With lack of training due to on going leg issue, business work overload and just plain laziness I was actually amazed at the result for this race. Went in knowing this was a C race and didn't wear any electronics, not even my simple Timex watch and ignored the bike CPU. If I would have averaged transition time from the last 4 races I could have had 4 more spots on the AG overall.

  • Comments: Awesome race venue. People were great and there were tons of volunteers. There are so many fast guys on the east coast here....all of Florida actually. Hopefully with a few more years I will be one of those guys. Have to remember to tell myself I am new to this and that this was my 8th race.

  • Comments: I had a great time and pushed myself a bit, so I am very happy. Wanted to beat 1:40 and I did. Had a good time, just need to work out and train more (like everyone else is saying). I am also happy that I was not competitive during the entire race, as this keeps me in a great mindset. I did it - and proud of how I did, even if I am average - I am ok with that (just as long as I push myself and do better than the last time). Congrats to all the other PineappleMan racers!

  • Comments: Excellent race. I had an absolute blast and am definitely hooked. I was really craving some MEAT after the race, but they just had fruit, bagels and donuts...probably better post race nutrition than that fried chicken leg running through my head. The volunteers were mostly very friendly and helpful. Before the race, I thought that being passed by a lot of people would get into my head, but it actually inspired me to continue with the sport and improve.

  • Comments: For a "C" race this was a nice surprise for me with a best swim and bike on this course, I was thinking a 1:35 or so for sure. Looking forward to the race in upstate NY in July.
