Great showing by the Ticking Tri Bombs this weekend with 8 Members Completing the 1/2 Iron Distance Race!
Conditions were pretty tough. The swim was ROUGH! The bike was great. Only mild winds.....until mile 50, when gusts and horizontal rain came out of nowhere. With every building along the coast that we passed, we went through a terrifying swirl of wind that had you white-knuckled and praying for the best. Numerous people went down from being blown over (including one of our own who jumped back up and still had a 22.4mph bike avg!)
Congrats to all competitors and a number of FAST TTB's who braved the elements -
Barbara K. - 1st Place Female Masters
Chris K
Leah W. - 1st AG, 5th Overall
Mark R. - 5:09
Victor Allen S. 4:45 after a DNF last year
Mike H. - (5:04 with a spill on the bike)
Dr. Kat - 5:52
