I need to train on hills more often. I was passing riders on the climbs, but I feel like I could do better.

Still fighting off ITBS. I maintained a constant and light. Not a fast run, but good enough for a good AG finish. I would have loved to run at my regular race pace, but conservation was more important.

ITBS.

Event comments:

Very well organized, plenty of food/snacks after the race, and the live music was lots of fun. Can't wait to go back next year.

I thought of all the times I didn’t attempt something I wanted to do because I was too afraid of trying something new or of failing completely.

The boat was being tossed around. Someone noted that there were whitecaps on the waves. Another guy said, “This is going to be challenging.” I began to wonder what he meant by 'challenging'.

I was passing others who were saying, "Good job, 587" (that was my race number). People were cheering me on. These were the nicest people I have ever been around!

It’s a challenge to push yourself a little harder and a little further. Be proud of every workout that is accomplished and every step-even the baby ones-that you take on this course to the finishline.
