This past weekend I took part in the 2010 Xterra Snow Valley off-road tri in Running Springs, CA. What a race! I felt like I had to show up and race as it was practically in my back yard.
Results: Swim 0:17:42 Bike 0:52:02 Run 0:35:59 Total 1:45:43
Good for 21st overall and second in my age group...which was a pretty slow age group but what can ya do. The race was a blast. Riding up to the start was a great warm-up. The swim venue was excellent. I did go out way to fast in the swim and ended up sucking wind and overheating in the wetsuit for most of it. Bike was crazy fun. I have a pos (piece of shit!) mountain bike so i'm ok with getting burnt on this part of the day but I was cruising down some hills! Run was like a heart attack. I felt good though. And actually managed a decent run relative to the leaders. There was a devil on mt diablo that called me a "little bitch" for walking...he was right....but i saw a bunch of others walking so oh well!
I felt really good overall. For sure not my best performance but I was really happy to stay somewhat close to the leaders. It was a fun race and is on the radar for next year!
