Hey Heidi,

Congrats on a great race! Good point on the trail shoes for the grass--I never would have thought about that. Also, nice times on the runs AND on the bike--especially considering you're not a big MTB rider, don't have clipless :0, and threw the chain.

Funny that you took off on the final leg wearing your helmet.

Sorry I didn't make it down to meet you but literally as I was grabbing the car keys the phone rang and I got news that my cousin had passed away.

CONGRATS again on the race and continued success this season!

All the best,
Rob

Great job on the race Heidi.  Your run times were great, even without the trail shoes.  Nice to know all that work is paying off.
