The first run went well, I started out faster than I thought I would but it is not too hard on me. The hill is always tough, but it was good to know the markers, so I knew what was coming and where I was in the route.

Nothing, very happy.

Congratulations!  Wow is right.  I can't believe the improvements you've made this year.  Another great race.  And passing people on the bike!  What's that like? :-)
