http://triathletediva.blogspot.com/2013/08/no-littering-on-course.html
Monday, August 12, 2013. No littering on the course! I was being eco-conscious. I'd slammed two mint chocolate Gus on the bike and didn't have anywhere to put the wrappers, so I shoved them under my shorts.

Which brings us to our first Phoenix Fail:. Yes, the branches overhanging the property on the left are chopped off at the property line.
