<Points two thumbs at himself>  This guy.  

 

First Tri in a little over two years.   Going to do the race with a couple of people from our bible study group and I am really excited.  So who else is racing?

I should be there. Small lake, so easy swim. Rather flat bike course, so pretty fast. I big-ringed it the whole way last year. Had to drop the run due to calf flaring.

Be interesting to see Will Smith going again. I pulled ~1:03 on the bike last year and he was a full 10 minutes faster!

I'm in for the Oly distance. Been swimming in Ottawa lake and its already pretty warm. I'm guessing it'll be a no-wetsuit race if the heat keeps up like this!

Last year it was in that borderline wetsuit, but no award zone. The lake is kind of small and doesn't seem deep, so it's likely to do that again. Or no-wetsuit at all.

Is that swim a bit longer than others? Just seems like the times are a bit skewed long. I know Will is wicked fast, but looks like based on last year there was nobody else under 25min. Race looks fast!

I think it was long last year. I wasn't just slow, but horribly slow. Will was ~3 min off his previous time, and he's a solid swimmer within the pro ranks. You don't lose swim ability like that.

I am doing the sprint again as I have been on training vacation for about 2 years.  The last time I did the sprint I believe I was 5th OA, so I will be interested to see what I can pound out this year.  Just really looking forward to putting on the race wheels and hammering.  I am hoping this gets me back in the swing of things and I can get back to racing shape.

I just opened the Official Thread. That one is linked to any race page, any race reports, or other things. Really a nice way to more easily find information on it.
