Event comments:

Might have won my division. Guy who won did a 6:07. Expected him to do a 5:30.

Many thanks to the 3 different guys who loaned (gave) me CO2 and a tube. Numerous others offered. Great example of why I love triathletes!

Doing well for first 36 miles but then had a slow leak. used my Co2 and then a borrowed one to fill front tire. Went 5 miles and then was soft again. Changed tube and had to borrow more CO2. Went 5 miles and had a blow out. Front tire dry-rotted I guess. Waited a long time, finally borrowed another tube. Blew again. Had to wait for SAG truck. By the time he got there, bike time was maxed out. He had no tires anyway. DNF
