Thanks

I did not stop to say Hi, trying to stay focused and was too busy sucking air after wards.  Very cool time.  Swimming very bad, but now I know what to practice.

It was so awesome to have so much support. You ALL ROCK!!!!!!!

What an awesome feeling!!!!

It was so great to have the tent with the purple alien and all the forum friends that I met. I feel so blessed and accomplished right now. I called my mom and dad, kids, neighbors and told them all "I AM A TRIATHLETE!!!!!" You guys truly made the day special, as did my DH who is always my best bra (support)! Thank you to everyone and I can't wait to see you all again at training and races.

very, VERY cool to see everyone out there.  Double cool to have Trixie & SweetP out there on the course, SweetP not only recognized me but yell my real name and grabbbed a photo (?)!!  Thanks!!!  You're all welcome to join the Racing Greyhound team next year too- that way I can share all the Hammergel & Heed I had in my car for our team.    PM me for details or watch for the e-mail in September-ish.

Great time folks.  That was my favorite tri yet. 

I'll get some pics up later this evening. 

I just wanted to say, that everyone gave a tremendous effort today, and I think that is very, very cool.  So congrats to all the first timers, the hardware winners, and everyone of you triathletes.

Bummer dude, I would have liked to have met you.  Funny as it may be, I saw another Davisonian there.  That was quite unexpected.

Did you at least see the group?  I mean, its not like you could have missed us...

I also underestimated the swim but I finished and had a great time   The bike leg and T2 went pretty well for me.  I also feel very good and accomplished.  I'm sorry that I couldn't make it to the tent to meet you guys, I arrived to the event RIGHT before the beginner meeting and then I really needed to warm up and try out the temperature of the water and a warmup swim.  I will catch some of you guys during a group training or swim in the future I am sure.  What a blast!!  Thanks for the great time!

Congrats on a great day everyone.  Matt thanks for setting up the tent.  I wanted to come over and say hi and even made it over by the tent for a few seconds, but I got there later than I wanted and took too long to set up.  My swim was way harder than I wanted it to be.  I loved the bike portion, and hated the first mile of the run...after that I felt great and finished strong.  All in all it was a great day.   I hope to meet you in the future and would love to do some training in the Lansing area.

Excellent job to all the first timers today! Sorry I missed you guys but it was a great day for race nonetheless! That's a fast course if you're ready for it. Real fun time!

Again, great job to all the first timers and I'll look forward to some training sessions with you guys come July!

MI BTers - you guys rock!

Matt - many thanks for setting up the tent, without which we probably would not have gathered in the way we did. Slammin' race performance too, amigo.

Trixie - thanks for coming to the park and supporting us! Right on with the cherries and, in my case, raspberries too (major bike tumble). Badges of honor and fuel for more racing, right?!

This forum (thus, all of you) has been a great support structure, and it was really cool to share my first tri experience with you all. I learned a ton on this event. Choosing the group start (rather than individual one) was a tough choice but I am glad I did it - provided some great lessons, and made me even more stoked about the next events.

I'm hooked! Looking really forward to many more tris and group training with you fine folks.

Jo, SunDevil, Jacklyn, Kristen, Matt... Congrats again on the completion of a great event!

Way cool to share this experience with you all. And see you soon at our next training session.

Hi triathletes,

I just stumbled upon this thread on Sunday evening ... AFTER the tri. I'm really bummed that I didn't find you all sooner, as I would've LOVED to meet-up and train with some fellow triathletes-in-the-making.

Anyway, I'm just posting to say congrats to everyone on a really fun tri (my first!), and if you're interested, I'm all for some company as I train for the next tri (not sure yet which one).

Also, I blog about running (and now tri training) for the Lansing State Journal if you're looking for some extracurricular reading: www.lsj.com/kick_asphalt

Take care and I hope to hear from some of you in the Lansing area!

Amanda, if this is you, I was standing near the tent after the race.  We were right there at the finish. You JUST MISSED US!!

 
Anyway, Congrats!!
