I just wanted to send out a special thanks to number 492, Brian. This was my first tri and on the bike I ended up getting a flat tire. He graciously stopped and gave me a new tube, taking time away from his own race. Later on in the bike part, the glass I had somehow ran over was still stuck in my tire and popped the new tube. Thanks also to the bike Dr. that helped me with the second time.
Despite all of this I still had a great time and everyone was so kind. (even other racers who called out, if I needed anything, as they rode by while I was walking my bike) I can't wait to try another tri and come back to this one next year.
This was a great first event!
At least I know I will beat my time...as long as I don't get anymore flats.
