New Orleans 70.3, or actually 69.1! ;-)as the swim was canceled by the RD on race morning.
The conditions were good, sunny not too hot but very windy specially on the bike. The roads were fine better than I thought.
385 M30-34 735 John Gerber 33 Milford CT USA 633 2:43:10 20.6 3:10 313 1:41:03 7:43 4:27:23
531 F50-54 213 Pascale Butcher 50 Southport CT USA 601 2:42:13 20.7 2:22 641 1:54:06 8:43 4:38:41
1204 M30-34 805 Christopher Mon 34 Shelton CT USA 1259 3:01:53 18.5 6:10 1291 2:17:16 10:29 5:25:19
It was Chris first 70.3, so Chris and John ran 1.2 miles after the race to make it to 70.3!
Chris was inspired by his new born little girl, who entered the world just a week before the race!
I love this picture, she is so pretty! Congratulations!
And as for me, how was-it to race in the 50 division? Not too bad after all, someone on the course told me he was surprised as he thought I was 45! ;-)
USAT Rankings for 2010 have been posted and here are some results:
Bryan French 263 HM
Gus Ellison 205 AA
Chris Woods 90 AA
Sue Fegelman 155 HM
Roger Baxley 380 HM
Christine Robeson 108 AA
Valentin Lopes 8 AA
Pascale Butcher 52 AA
AA= All American
HM= Honorable Mention
If you want to be ranked by USAT you need to be a member and do at least 3 triathlons sanctioned by USAT or 2 duathlons. And your membership pays for itself if you race more than 3 times anyway.
Come on race this summer, it is fun, exciting and kind of hard! Adopt the triathlete lifestyle.
