FIRST RACE OF THE SEASON

Last weekend Andy and I raced our first duathlon in Rochester, which is about 30 minutes south of Oly. It's tiny, so I thought I would add it's location. It wasn't till 2pm so the torrential downpour had let up by then which was rad. And I'm not normally moving so well in the morning so I'm all about the later start time. Andy did his first mile in like 4:40 so I was the first person out on the bike. I think I finished in 11.5 miles in 38 minutes. They haven't put the results up yet (hence the small race). Which is ok for me this early in the season. I kept getting passed by these dudes with huge legs. Someday I'll have huge legs! I think the funniest part of the day was the one guy totally outfitted with his aero helmet and full disk in the rear. It was a pretty informal race and he just looked like he was tyring way to hard. Well to each their own I guess! We are going to do another next month. Which should be as fun as our mud filled Saturday! My fitness is continuing to improve after a slow start to the season. More to come later!
