WOW! Fabulous report!

Good job on keeping your "head up" even though you came out of the water last. You didn't let that affect the rest of your race. Perfect!

I got the wind at my back, and actually began to see some riders ahead of me. My new mantra: If I can see you, I can pass you. It's true! I passed 9 people, and then saw no one ahead of me for the rest of the race
AWESOME! I love that mantra! Watch out, I might have to use that in my next race!

Well, great job on the race... and I cried just reading the report... I can imagine how you cried when you finished!
