  • Comments: Not a bad race. Challenging course for a sprint. They changed some things up this year with the course and registration, and lets just say I hope they learned a few things today, because both need a little work.

  • Comments: I enjoyed the race today..well, I can say that after I forget how much it hurt..but I have to stop doing these as sleep deprivation experiments. I got 5 hours of sleep Friday night, rode 29 miles Sat. morning, did chores and cleaned the gym, then drove to Clermont in the evening, arriving at 11 PM. Got maybe 3-4 hours of decent sleep as I was keyed up despite being dead tired. Anyway, enough whining..I made some progress this race. I ate a bigger breakfast (Denny's Grand Slam as pre-race food rocks!), drank Gatorade during the race, and that seems to be good for me, at least at this distance. I'll need more for the half. My swim's coming along; I'm still no speedster but the Master's workouts are *definitely* helping. The other fun thing was getting faster on the bike, despite riding all week and the fact that I rode Big Fat Blue, the 29 lb road bike (I did take the rack off). I think with some Powertap riding time, I'll be ready to pace my race better on these rolling
