  • Comments: This race has a reputation for being well organized and on time. It was chosen by USAT as one of their Grand Prix Circuit races this year, so we had mui marshalls on motorcycles watching for violations. My only rant: I will say that I've heard of cheaters on the bike course before, but never have I witnessed it or been a victim of it before Saturday. One guy in my wave, I'll call him Disc Man, came by me on a downhill. I passed him at the flat at the top and then pulled away and stayed ahead of him past the turnaround. Suddenly, on the headwind leg when all honorable racers were struggling into the gusts, a bike passes me and on his rear wheel is Disc Man, drafting through traffic like he's in a crit! I was angry and would have reported him if I had gotten his number. I wanted to yell out "Pass or drop back," but by the time I established he was in fact drafting and not just stuck behind a slower biker, they were gone. Anyway, it didn't ruin an otherwise fabulous day!

  • Comments: I love being a triathlete, I guess I can say that now that I have done two. It feels good.
