Lake Marion

I'll be there doing the sprint.  Most of my races this year have been olympic distance or running races, but my dad is completing his first Tri!

See you there.  Looks to be good weather for Sunday.

I'm in for the Olympic too.  This will be a low-key race for me.  I'm just looking forward to enjoying the atmosphere, making sure my gear is in working order and adding to my t-shirt collection.

I am doing the Sprint.  Did my 1st 2 weeks ago(Brewhouse Sprint) and now I'm hooked.  Hope to see everyone.

Why?Because I'm not done yet.

Yes!  Doing the Lake Marion Sprint as my "A" race of the year.

Have devoted more time to swimming and biking, and looking for a big
improvement over my results last year.

Hope to see ya out there!

I'm in! Looking forward to it, even though it is the last tri of the season.

Edit- I'm doing the olympic race. TriRochester kit with a silver Trek bike. Should we arrange a photo op? I'll have a photographer along with.

I'm in for the short course.  As this is my first race since I hurt myself a couple years ago, this is more for fun than for anything.  Black/white tri-suit, helmet, Felt.  Tall with shaved hair and light blue eyes. 

Is there a place that people are meeting before or after the race?  It'd be great to say hello to people.  I'm afraid about the only person I'd recognize is Bryan.  Oh and I am Aaron.

So.....How did everyone's race go?

Mine was going great until around mile nine of the bike were I flatted .  Now I'm looking for another late season race to make up for it.

Luckily I had a spare and could finish the race, someone else flatted at the same spot and he wasn't carrying a spare.

I was looking for people at the meet-up before the meeting, but didn't see anyone along the path.  Oh well.

My race went fantastic.  11th overall and 3rd in my age group for the sprint.  That was a nice race.  I'd definitely do it again.

Congrats on the great races guys.  Sorry about your gremlin Scuff.  I too missed meeting up prior to the race.  Though I did get a shout-out from Jeff while heading up the long hill. 

For what was essentially a gear test for 3 weeks from now, everything went well.  There weren't any mechanical issues.  But, I did forget components of my nutrition plan and essentially did the Olympic on nothing but water and a little sport drink.  I still ended up with a 7-minute PR for the distance; most of which was on the run.  All-in-all, it was a great morning to race. 

Oh, and double-kudos to the lady who finished the run in a walking boot.  That's hard core. 

Solid race Eric! Congrats on the PR! You look ready for IMWI.

I asked the lady in the "boot" if she hurt her foot "Kicking A$$!" because that's the way it looked to me, she had a good laugh. I look forward to doing this race in the years to come and eclipsing this years time!
