  • Comments: It would have been better if all volunteers could answer your questions. I had asked a volunteer where the pre race meeting was and he did not know. He said all he did was give out t-shirts. Not so good planning on the volunteer area. But overall it was good.

  • Comments: Very first race and had a blast. Really took it easy cause I was so nervous and didn't know if I had trained enough. I know now that I did and could have pushed myself much harder. Loved the race!

  • Comments: I went into this race wanting to do better than 1:35:00. I was right on the money with a 1:34:15 official time. I timed myself with my watch and the lap counter feature to get my splits this quickly. I’ll update with the official splits when they are available. My self time was really close at 1:34:16. So I am fairly confident in my splits. Overall I’m pleased with my performance on this race. (WARNING more excuses to follow) Especially considering my poor preparation for the race and the weight gain from the vacation we just took to California. I plan on doing this race again next year at the Olympic distance. It will be an A race next year in preparation for the Soma Half-Iron in the fall of 2008. What’s next? Next is the Xterra race in Mesa on April 21st. It is a long distance race with a 1500 meter open water swim in cold water. I’ll probably be walking the 10K at the end!
