Good luck Rev3 folks.  Will be thinking about you tomorrow.

Have fun out there!

ha!  well played.

Wishing the Rev3 folks good luck.  

Bree Wee has pulled out, don't know why.

Be safe out there! 

from her fb. 

"For circumstances out of my control I won't be on the start line this morning. The sun came so I'm very sure it's not the end of the world, just triathlon..."

thats two rev3 races in a row.  sucks. 

Awesome for you guys!  You all rock!

Great job guys.

How was the race overall? 

Home. Alive. Tired. Sunburned. Hungry. Satisfied.

Looking forward to a little slack-fest.

But mostly right now looking forward to the rest of my burrito (giant burritos for post-race food = awesome!) and a shower more thorough than the kid's play area whereby I was cleansed by kids (not mine) so thrilled to pummel an adult. Enjoyed that park's water feature tremendously.

Tough course. Warm swim. Crazy bike through 35.5 miles. Hot run. Happy.

Great job Rev3ers! Enjoy your rest and drink lots of wine!

Congrats to the rev3 racers!!

Jayne: looks awesome.  The only thing missing is two cold beers....the dog looks like he/she needs one too.

funny.  i was looking at the race last night.  thinking this or eagleman.  leaning more towards this.  and now that i know tony will be there.. HELL YEAH, i get to harass him in person again!!!!  haha.

i'll talk to jarrett and see whats up.  i like this idea because of the history lessons coupled with vacation coupled with the race. 

and just in case it does work out.... i'm gonna crush you.

I think the Rev3 event will be more fun, probably a lot less crowded, I would imagine both venue's will be hot, flat and fast.

Kyla signed up already?

We're home from Quetico Provincial Park.....but I wanted to stay for the rest of the summer!

Awesome picture!

Eagleman has jellyfish.  Williamsburg has all of the fun historical stuff very close by (Jamestown settlement is literally across the street if they stick to the same SetUp start/finish) plus Busch Gardens and Water Country just down the road.

And it could be a nice practice for Ironman Williamsburg 2014 ?!?!?!  There's a group trying really hard to get that deal done.

Any idea of timing for the IM?

Ha!! On the last part of the bike course, where it's a flat out-and-back (and it was hot), I was having fun!! Well, I had fun the whole time, but it's much more satisfying to go 20mph rather than 3. Yes, I was in the 3's on many of the hils.

FWIW, my family LOVED LOVED LOVED the Rev3 race. Granted, they really spent the day playing with friends and came to the race site late (w/my blessings and per my suggestion... I don't think it's worth it for them to see me for 3 seconds here and there and then to be bored in between). But the site was awesome and they played in the lake with friends and enjoyed the small vibe and atmosphere and finishing with me. Funny, Dave missed the finish because he thought I wasn't coming for awhile yet and he had just gone to the bathroom when I appeared. Shea almost didn't make the run with me because she was slow to realize what was happening and then was yelling, "Mom, wait up!!!" I told her "Shea, hurry up!! I'm not waiting!" Ha!

Body feels like I was run over by a truck. Much, much, much more sore than an IM race. Go figure.

LOL, when my kids jumped out at Knoxville last year I was spent and my brain wasn't working well, I sort of slowed down, ran with my son but we left my daughter in the dust.
