 Swim
Comments: Feel I did okay. Mostly stayed in a crowded pack for the first 1/2. Got passed and passed so all good. Thought I had done better but am okay w/ it. Think I ended up swimming next to Bodonuts for some of it. What would you do differently?: swim more in training.  Transition 1
Comments: wow!! damn long time in t-1. Didnt think it was that long. Gotta watch it. What would you do differently?: body glide ankles and arms  Bike
Comments: hammered the bike, stayed aero, used the downhills. LOL....I kept passing and being passed by this same woman over and over. Kinda fun as we laughed at it in t-2. Transition 2
Comments: in and out, grabbed a gel and headed out. Hamstrings giving me some trouble and had to give them some attention.  Run
Comments: Started out at a good pace on the run, hammies talking to me. Ended up nearly literally bouncing into Max. How often in life does one get a chance to run w/ an Ironman??? I am honored to have been able to spend time w/ this fine man. We chatted about so many wonderful things. Thanks max!! What would you do differently?: priceless Post race
Warm down: grabbed some drinks. Waited for other BTers to come in, check the tent. Best was yet to come--finish line Full effect hugs from May and Joanne!!!! :) :) That wonderful KathyG and her darling daughter were saviours at the finish line, thanks!! Truly heartwarming times w/ all the friendly BTers and families. Rob and his wonderful wife, trigirl69, dave, chris, kathy, joe, and joe (bodonuts), joanne, may, max, matrimom, jorge,...god so many...I missed amanda and berniect. An overwhelmingly great day!! new friends and ones already known. A watershed moment in my life. THANK YOU ALL!!!:) What limited your ability to perform faster: 43 farking years old!!! hehe Event comments: Fantastic race!! great organization and volunteers. Last updated: 2005-08-29 12:00 AM

Champion 8903   | Subject: RE: Cranberry Country Triathlon Haha...great race and thanks for running with me....you really made my day. I'm sure I might have walked a bit if you hadn't been there, but I kept thinking "I'm not gonna even walk the aid stations. I gotta be tough." If you hadn't been there, it might have been a lot closer between May and me. You had a great bike split too, fighting that wind and still doing over 20 mph! Good fun hanging around the BT tent. We gotta do this stuff more often!  |

Champion 19812 MA | Subject: RE: Cranberry Country Triathlon Glen...I didn't see you before the race...first glimpse I got of you...you were jumping into the small swimming pools on your way into T1...you looked like you were having too much fun. You jumped with much more style and fun than everyone else!! Sounds great that you bumped into Max for the run...I normally can't talk while racing. It was fun hanging out afterwards and seeing so many BTers!! Great race and I'll see you around at a race soon. You should consider doing Try the Tri in Bristol on Sept. 17th. That will be my last race the season...small, disorganized...but flat and fast!! |

Extreme Veteran 596 ma | Subject: RE: Cranberry Country Triathlon Great race report. So optimisitc and a great inspiration. It was great to have so many BT'ers. To add to Kathy's options for another end of season race. I'm doing the Dover Sherborn one on Sept 18th! The swim is in Farm pond, the bike ride through Sherborn and the run is through a development of freshly paved (hilly) roads. |
