Saturday was the chinook half! The weather turned out to be OK for racing. The clouds were looming overhead but I think it never really rained. The winds were out for part of the ride making the course even more difficult. If you have never done this ride it is full of rollers!
Maureen was back racing today. She had a strong swim and bike. Basically she raced this part of the race with Gord. It was good to see him on the run again! Maureen took a while to get into her pace on the run but once she found it, it felt good. Good enough for 1st in her Age group and 2nd Female overall. Nice! 5:31
Corey was back racing and his body was mostly healed from his bike crash just before Wasa. This was his first half and he was keen to give it a good go. Unfortunately he had some cramping issues that did not let him get aero during his bike. And he loves to ride hard. The cramping also affected his run. He was very happy to have completed his 1st half but disappointed that he had cramping issues. His time was 5:42
Brian was also competing today. He had a bit of a rough swim but once he was on land he felt much better. he was very happy to have this race under his belt.
This always looks like a good race. I will have to try it one year.
