Strange bike ride. It was very anaerobic with all the hills and being such a short distance. Traversing through the neighborhood was difficult because of the cornering. The use of the aerobars on the bike was useless.

I was 2nd place by about 5 seconds. First place was by a North Medford cross country runner. After talking to him, we decided the course was long, but not sure by how much.

None

Note: Reverse Triathlon

This was the first year for this race. Some things were organized but other were not. They had times wrong for some athletes. The bike course needed to be supervised even more than it was. A good course map would have helped everyone.

I pretty much did this race for a workout, and a challenge to win some good prizes. I won $75 cash, 1 night in a suite at Holiday Inn, and supplements from GNC.
