Newfoundland 70.3

Just a very quick update. Newfoundland was GREAT! The race was hands down the best race I have ever been to. It was well organized, small and SAFE. Yes, that is right I said "safe". The bike had absolutely NO traffic and the run was shut down to traffic as well. On top of that every little detail of this race was planned and executed.

I was 5th overall amateur and 9th overall if we count the pros too. It was a good day and a hard effort. I will write more about the race in a few days when I get caught up on life here...but I will tell you that we had to climb a mountain 2x that was 2.5 miles long! OK - my time was 5:10 but considering the mountain I am very happy with that!
