Nice mile splits ... you can really tell that you had the discipline to hold back for the first half by how your time dropped dramatically when you poured on the gas beginning at mile 7.

Way to finish it strong!!

You ROCK Rob!  How far did ya'll go towards Kenner?  For some odd reason, I was thinking the race direction was going the other way more towards Norco. (?)  I rode out to Rivertown yesterday and saw some grubby-looking guy urinating on the side of the levee, about 10 ft. off the trail...hope he wasn't out there to greet ya'll!   Now that I've given you that pleasant visual, I'm really proud of you and Joann.  I hope training gives you the distraction we all need from the Daily Drama.

Hey Laurie, we didn't cross the city line into Kenner.  I don't recall the exact location of the turn.  The race was along the bike river bike path. The bike path past bridge in Destrehan only goes for about another mile.
