  • Comments: Final thoughts: Holy cow. Where did that run come from?!?! First, I’m glad the time wasn’t 6:00:XX. For real. I’d be beating myself up thinking about where I could have found those few seconds. I know I didn’t leave two full minutes out there anywhere. I’m completely certain of that. Second, this time is a TWENTY MINUTE PR. 20 minutes faster!!! I took 17 minutes off of my bike time from Austin last October. I dropped 5 minutes from my run time. My swim was a touch slower, but with course measurements and conditions, it’s generally not a completely accurate number. Third, training for this distance can be overwhelming at times, but racing it is SO fun!

  • Comments: Even with the timing chip issues I experienced, I'd definitely do this race again if I were looking to travel to Maine again. Looking forward to my next Rev3 event in Williamsburg next year!

  • Comments: I loved this race. Rev3 did a great job and the volunteers were terrific. You could tell they were really excited to have an event like this in their hometown. The post race food was not so great but I never really eat that much after a race anyway.
