Great job! You get extra points for listening to your instinct and body for when to stop. When you report the full story, please tell us what shorts you wore, and how they felt after 187 miles.

Susan did a fantastic job. She rode really smartly and managed herself well on an extremely challenging day. There was carnage all over the course from the heat and she held it together like a pro.
Congrats on a great race Susan!!Living life like there's no tomorrow.

Oh goodness. I forgot about the two of you while I was whining about the heat over here this weekend.
Congratulations to both of you for keeping it together and not just throwing in the towel based on the forecasts (which would be moi). I was talking to the guy who defended his title at the Mac Dash tri in Madras on Saturday. He said he was successful but it involved a lot of post-race vomiting.Last edited by SadieKate; 09-14-2009 at 11:36 AM.
