  • Comments: It was a great race, had a ball. It was hot but not nearly as bad as I expected,though really on the 2nd loop of the run it felt really hot but may have only been 85. was able to dump water on head and chest at each station, that was nice. Oh one thing, when I started running my stomach was swashing around, gross. I looked later and my 24oz bottle was only 1/2 gone, I had one gel about 25min b/f swim, 1 gel 25min into the bike and a few maybe 6 of those caffiene gelly beans. Guess that was too much...or maybe the kaopectate which I took 45min b/f the swim didn't settle right, not sure. Eventually the sloshing stopped, I chose to throw the water on me instead of drink it, took maybe 2 or 3 tiny sips to wet mouth.

  • Comments: This is a great race. Rudy Project donated some prizes for the winners so I won a brand new pair of sun glasses, which was awesome. They also gave out sweet cowbells to the overall winners and I got one of those as well. This is an excellent race.
