I know its not really all that hard to qualify for the sprint distance but I thought I would share anyway.

I placed 4/5 out of 45 in the 40-44 AG yesterday at the Warsaw Indiana sprint. I say I placed 4/5 because the guy who actually placed 1st on the AG was 3rd overall, so that threw me into 4th in the AG.  But reality is I was 5th.  I am certainly not complaining.  It was an incredible amount fun and this was my first race of the season.

My time:1:12.25 (.25/13.8/3.52)

There are several people who helped me get to the place I am with my racing efforts through the mentor groups.  This being only my second season doing tri's and only my 3rd race overall.  newbz, tri808 and jeffY provided the most part of the "coaching" and a whole lot of insight into proper training.  There were many, many others who were great encourager's in all of the mentor groups I have participated in.
