Hammered. I had no clue where I stood in the race. One guy that I kept going back and forth with on the bike was ahead of me. We both passed a runner and when I asked him how many where ahead of him he said "you guys are it...we're first, second and third" Holy crap...I was racing for the win. I just couldn't close the gap on the younger guy ahead of me. Turns out someone from another wave beat me so ended up with a 3rd place overall. I'll take it.

Event comments:

Traffic volunteers need to be a little more assertive at intersections to tell racers where to go. Great venue and great to see a lot of BT'ers out there.

It was nice meeting you during the awards ceremony.

Awesome job overall, and WOW! on that bike leg. I can only hope to get that fast on the bike in the next couple of years!
