  • Comments: Laura was sitting by the finish line with an ice pack on her knee -- she blew her ACL again -- she said it went the last mile, but she kept running. And came in first place in her division. My warm down was hugging my baby. I am so proud of her determination and her sportsmanship that however hurt I was still feeling about the bad behaviour from the guy who grabbed my suit during the swim, it all faded when I saw Laura. For me, she embodies the true heart of the sport.

  • Comments: HFP rocks, I like them a bunch. They had lots and lots of volunteers at this race, in contrast with the woefully understaffed Buckeye Lake Tri/Du. One suggestion: instead of telling us that our wave will go off at 8:06AM, which it never does, just tell us that we're in wave 1 and the waves will start shortly after 8. Coming nowhere close to these meticulously scheduled start times just makes the organiazers look unnecessarily unorganized.
