  • Comments: Surprised that there weren't any water stations on the bike course. Maybe that's normal, but after volunteering last month and working at a bike water station, I thought that was that norm. Police did a great job with traffic control. No issues at all! Sorry that I didn't run into any other BTer's. Warmed up with a t-shirt covering my BT jersey, so that probably didn't help! Also should note that before the race saw two other guys in their early 20's racking up their mountain bikes. I just thought that I would have no chance against them. Well don't you know, after the swim, both of their bikes were still there when I got to T1, and I only saw one of them come to T1 because I was fiddling around with my jersey so long. The guy who beat me was a 45 year old foagie, so you just never know do you?? I learned to not doubt your own abilities, and just run your own race! :)

  • Comments: I really liked this race. The only issue that I didn't like was the huge hill that we had to run up from the beach to the TA. Not anything the race folks could or can do about it, but man after spending as long in the water as I do, that is one killer hill. :)
