And it helped tremendously! The last mile is annoying because you wind a...

Half Ironman (Boulder Long Course Triathlon) - race recap! Wow, training for this race has been a big part of my life the last 8 months and now it's over! Honestly, I'm a little glad for a break! I was pretty happy that I didn't have to walk much, just 30 seconds at every few aid stations. The last couple of miles I ran by several people (men and women)...
