It doesn't surprise me that you set a big PR, you have been doing really well recently it seems like on all phases of triathlon. <br /><br />That is crazy about the weather, that pic of the storm moving in on the bikes is pretty crazy. <br /><br />Glad that you didn't get a blister with having wet feet in your shoes, I tried that on a hike one time and got some huge blisters.Nellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11613262056157769496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8441313713715572662.post-30585988424013124552011-08-03T09:38:32.115-05:002011-08-03T09:38:32.115-05:00Congratulations!!

Congrats on the race. <br /><br />I been at a race when it down poured before, its mentally tough on you, I know, everything is soak, your soak, it throws you off your game a little, and you still rocked it<br /><br />ps If any racer claims that they have never pee'd in the water during training or a race, they are lying.
