Improper Bike Dismount
Tweet Do as I say, not as I do. I think I locked up my front break (left hand) as I made my dismount. My bike nearly took out some of the volunteers. It was as though I was a Nascar driver and my back end was all squirrelly. After looking at the video below, … Continue reading
Hayden Sprint Triathlon
Tweet 18th overall out of 255 finishers. I was hoping for better but I know where I lost it, the run. I was super happy about my swim.
