  • Comments: Good race for my fitness level. I aimed for a 6:15 to 6:25 finish but failed, ugh... Should I sign up for this or another 70.3, I'm gonna suck it up and race slower if my rest is suboptimal.

  • Comments: Awesome race. Beautiful course. Lots and lots and lots of volunteers. Very organized. No surprises (don't tell that the the person who should have been first and made a wrong turn). Everyone was friendly. Great race.

  • Comments: WTC consistently puts on good races, but also consistently has very mediocre food after. And as always, I wish there was a better / more consistent way for them to enforce drafting and position rules on the bike.

  • Comments: This is pretty good course and I think I can PR here, just need to get faster off of the bike. Long distance tris are such a mind game. I tried to ficus on moving forward and racing toward those tracking me. It's mentally tough for me to finish a long race and not see a familiar face at the end, was glad to see a few people I knew along the way and toward the end. It really does lift my mood!!
