  • Comments: They ran out of water at both the run stations and did not have volunteers. Cat, Derek and I starting doing water duty for the Olympic distance people. They would not have had water at mile 2. Even worse, they ran out of water at mile 3.5 and 4.5.

  • Comments: I had a great time and didn't expect all that much, since this is just a local tri club's summer series. Very friendly group, and from the preliminary results it looks like I took first Athena, which I never would have expected! I'll try to update when the real results are posted online.

  • Comments: these "practice" tris are a great way to get racing experience without the pressure. i agree that the DIY water stations are kinda, well, not so great... but for 20 bucks, its a super safe way to get in a great workout and for many to have a low-key first time experience.

  • Comments: It's just a 'practice' tri, you keep your own splits and report later (which I still have to do because I didn't even stop by the running store to do that before I got outta Dodge). Still, a banana would be nice at the end :) It was great to meet all the Mosc girls (Charlie, where'd you go??) and I'm feeling a little better equipped to handle the NJ State Tri in a few short weeks. (yay for LAKE swims!) :)
