  • Comments: Great race! I like the "bigger" atmosphere...but there's plusses and minus to each type I guess...I'm very new to the sport, loving it, and learning a lot...thanks to everybody who I've met who've been more than gracious with all kinds of tips and tricks...I'll pay it forward when I have the chance! Thank you!

  • Comments: This was a PR for me by exactly one minute. Leave it to me to be somewhat disappointed with a PR, though. (I'm such a dork.) I was all excited about my time until I got home and looked at my report from last year. I ran 9:12 miles last year, but 9:35s today. Rats. I still got the PR because my bike was faster, but I was bummed about the run pace. I said in my blog on Saturday that I thought my 9:35 mile might have been the fastest I had ever run a mile, but apparently I was totally forgetting about this race last year and the 9:12s. I'm still happy with the PR, of course, I just wish I could have repeated the faster run afte this year's faster bike. Oh well. Next year! :) Other quick notes: -The lady they introduced in the pre-race meeting that was hit by a car on her bike two weeks ago--She's also from Hastings and I swim with her all the time at the middle school. I had no idea she had been hit though! I went to talk with her a bit and luckily she's doing very well. -I was running

  • Comments: Happy with the swim and bike, and run was adequate. Need to shave time off the transitions. The is the strongest I've felt in my first race of the season, so I'm excited about a good summer of racing.

  • Comments: This was my first outdoor tri and it was a lot of fun. I probably didn't train enough for it and now I know what I need to work on. I'm definitely doing this again in the future.
