I really have enjoyed all of the Tri the Parks races this year. It is always a good quality field of competition and well run races.

It was also a blast to see all of the BTers after the race. I have pictures of Haley and Janelle to post later on.

Brett,

It was great meeting you at the race. Now that we know each other, you can feel free to cheer me on out on the course [I probably would have been a little weirded out if some random had yelled "Go Steamy!" on Saturday ].

Great race for you! Going to try to get on the bike more so that I can pull my time down to yours.
