Coverage!
Headed out to the tri X off-raod triathlon this past Sunday. No i didn't race, but interviewed a few folks and got enough material to write and article/assignment for my Sports Writing unit at school. The article was also flogged off to the race director to see if it could make the rounds in the local sports magazines. As they say: Two birds with one stone.
Anyway, i met Liz and it was great catching up with her before and after the race. She finished as runner-up female behind Deanna (mother, multisport maven and all-round cyborg) and thoroughly enjoyed her day. Oh, she had but this to say about my SS Avanti (actually, rather than the bike itself, i think she was referring to the red fuzzy dice hanging from the stem): "You're a sad, sad man!" Jarad Kohlar secured the top male spot... guy's doing XTERRA too just before Keen!
So far this week, two paddles, two swims, a roller session and a technique run. Also, 1x acupuncture session. There'll be a paddle-run brick tomorrow, and an epic ride (i hope!) to Wombat State Forest on Saturday. Looking forward to it.
