  • Comments: I had hoped in January when I signed up for this race to just finish. About a month ago I changed that goal to - finish in under 2 hours. After Hillsborough two weeks ago I decided 1h 45m was my goal. I did it in 1h 25m and I felt SLOW...I know I have a ton of work ahead of me and I'm ready for it! This isn't going to be easy because now I don't have the luxury of NOT really knowing where I'm the worst. It's clear. Run....I have the ability to work on it and definitely make up time. It's hard to remember that not everyone just started this training thing recently - most of these people are really good. So the competitive part of me is struggling with my lack of being "GOOD" at any of it. I want it all to come overnight and it's just not going to happen like that. Patience Grasshopper, Patience. This I understand...so, my goals are constantly changing - I have a lot - and on the top of the list is to get my mile under 10 minutes and soon....All in all - second race....first true

  • Comments: The post race activities were pretty minimal. One item of note: I dropped the SDM portion of my Timex at some point on the bike. I thought it was gone. at the end of the race, I walked up to the RD with faint hope. SOMEONE had turned it in!!! Thanks who ever you are. I'll update the specific times as soon as they are posted.

  • Comments: This was a good first race course wise. I wasn't quite ready to race and actually just decided to do the race after the date change. It did show me that if I don't want to feel sad with my results etc, then I need to train harder. I enjoyed it and now know what I need to work on and my new goal is about 11 minutes faster than I did this race. 7 minutes on nike, 2 1/2 on the run, and 1 minute on the swim and 30 seconds or so on transition
