Subject: RE: Ochsner Ironman 70.3 New Orleans : Official ThreadGaryRM - 2010-03-03 3:38 PM Zia, same group as you (m45-49 ) and was happy with this years placement. I can see how the young speedsters are going to be a bit miffed. Will have to put a "Sorry you had to pass this" on my tail for them ;> ![](https://beginnertriathlete.com/discussion/images/emoticons/wink.gif) Training is going well and a couple of more long rides and I will be set. Yeah, bring on the carnage on the bike! Fortunately its a closed course (right? ) so there should be plenty of room to pass? Last year @ the NYC Tri I was in the 2nd to last wave and since the bike is my strength I must have passed 1/4 of the field (not bragging since for 1/3 of the field that was their first EVER triathlon ). I just remember it felt a lot faster than I was really going because I was buzzing past so many people from start to finish. I just hope there is water left for me at the end. |
