Nice race with an especially awesome run!  With the run course having so many turnarounds, we must have passed each other many times.  I finished about 12 seconds before you according to the results pages. 

I agree that Rev3 is the best.  Combine that with the perfect weather conditions = probably the best race experience that I have ever had!

nice race, great run, finishing 4th can be a little bittersweet, just off the podium but quite an accomplishment nonetheless
