JLAWG #3 - The race that was (barely)
August 24, 2009 | 1:22 pm
Great race! With some could-a-been-major hiccups. Put the highs & lows in bullet form to report.. It's fun to write about this stuff. And write at all again for that matter. Highs go first, since it was a very positive day. The 'lows' are just funny. And if they were elminated completely, would I still be having fun?
Highs:
*Sleeping in a familiar (and super cozy) bed at Snowdrift (the Law Family ski cottage in Wentworth.. sounds rough, hey?)
*Waking up to sun and on time (my alarm didn't go off.. phew!)
JLAWG #2 - Solo rolling

There isn't anything much less economical than a solo road trip. But that's just what I did this Sat/Sun (the hottest on the planet, ever) to make it to the TriParlee olympic triathlon at Parlee Beach in New Brunswick. All went well, despite the 'heat' everyone was talking about. Compared to Calgary on the August long weekend (29, no ocean breeze, twice the distance, 1000 M altitude) this was not -as it was in CowTown- a walk in the park, but rather a race where I felt strong and surging for most of the time..
