Ok, maybe it's me, but that is not looking like the flat run you all have been trying to tell me it is.

Ann

Ann,

If you look at the numbers you will see that the most those hills are are 10 feet or so.  Really that isn't much at all.  It is just rolling if anything and if you can even call it that.

Pam 

Hey, thanks!  That is all fabulously helpful information.  You're right, it is only 10 feet if you know how to read a graph!!!  Imagaine that.....  Anyhow, Thnaks a load, bikergrrl, your summary of the bike is valuable and the elevation graph of the run is fun to look at.  I hope to get out to bike some hills very soon over here.  I have an indoor Tri next weekend, so I've been focusing on the swimming a bit more than usual.  After that it is all bike.

 Ann

Ugh!  I started a new job and haven't had any time to train for this!!!!  I guess it is just going to be a nice, leisurely ride for 22 miles.....  hope those hills don't kill me!

Hey Ladies -

The waves were sent out in a recent e-mail.  In case you missed it:

Wave Race Starts:
Transition opens at 5:30 a.m.
7:30 a.m. Wave #1 Age Group 30 - 34
7:33 a.m. Wave #2 Age Group 29 & under
7:36 a.m. Wave #3 Age Group 35 - 39
7:38 a.m. Wave #4 Age Group 40 - 44
7:40 a.m. Wave #5 Age Group 45 +

(USAT age, not "real age" necessarily).  I am psyched because I get to go first!  They said there are 900 registered.  Even if 100 poop out, that's still a big crowd.  Yikes.

You'll probably pass me on the run!  Or in transition for sure...

Let's just look for each other near the food area.  Since we will finish at varying times, it's hard to pick a time.  I know I can pick out Nora and androgenie.   Maybe everyone can try to post their number here after packet pick-up on Saturday so we can look out for those?

And good luck to everyone!

I'm in and looking forward to it!

Ann

I'm 578.  See you there!

My computer said I topped out at 66 MPH!  I think that's hysterical.  I am sure I would have gotten the death wobble before that.  I didn't know about the accident, yikes.

Casey - I thought I saw you on the course and came up next to this women and said "Is that Casey?"  It wasn't you.  Sorry we missed you.  666...well, that's just plain scary! Are you the devil?
