| Triathlon (14140) 1:41:40 [4] | |
| ahr:164 |
| TriLoppet....Fantastic fun event....Kari and I did great in the paddle given our rookie status (50 minutes split for 5 miles) and I had solid trail run and mt bike...Kari was 4 minutes behind me and finished 4th in women coed doubles (paddle with male partner, the rest solo) just off the podium...different, fun, and interesting....I will be back next year.... |
Thursday Jun 22 |
| Note | |
| |
| one loop walking Nokomis....I could not bring myself to log it as training but Kari and I did check out the Riverview wine bar to see how cyclist could get sucked in the black hole, never to return...nice place...great pizza...We were able to walk away but we will be back.... |
