  • Comments: Great race venue, nice OWS, beautiful bike course, and nice park run. Lots of volunteers who did a great job, well organized, etc. Definitely a good race. I will say that there did not appear to be as many beginners at this race as there were in Athens, thus my finish was comparatively poor, but I actually thought I performed better than in Athens. I could tell a big difference in my run as I felt much better than in March. I was not faster, but I had a more relaxed and less taxing run than before. So, I did notice some improvement even though the time does not show it.

  • Comments: This was a very well run race and pre/post race activities. I believe there were 4 aid stations on the run, 2 of which encountered both ways. I actually passed through some not taking anything. My only gripe would be the lack of race specific (courses, wave starts, etc) info in the packet.

  • Comments: Ok, the race report definitely has a negative tone to it. Because frankly I had higher expectations for myself. I am my biggest critic, and maybe that's a good thing, maybe it's a bad thing. The good news: Despite what I consider a fairly poor performance, I GOT FIRST PLACE IN MY AG!!! After I finished I swung around to cheer Big John Stud, Chris, and Cliff on in. I thought my time might have earned me hardware. As results come out I notice I'm hovering around 20. I see two people my age in front of me. So I think, just hang on to 3rd baby! Then I realize that the 2 people in front of me are the 1st place and 3rd place finisher. So they don't fall into the AG categories. So I take first place by an overwhelming margin (around 6 minutes). Well, a fake first place I guess, since people my age really beat me. Head on over and throw down a mean baked potato and a few beers. Make my way over to the awards ceremony, and pick up the hardware. John makes me take off my shades.
