The online tracking was SLOW to get it posted. Glad that he got a cheer .. hope the wife did as well. Her estimated finish was 9:something not that it matters I just hope that she had what she needed towards the end of the course water/fuel wise.

For the record, I'd love to do one one day. BUT the swim would kill me .. unless I could like backstroke or something. lol I have issues with water on my face and bothering my contacts AND I can't goggles on my face so ....

They also spoke before the race. Got a huge cheer then too.

Mrs. Golfer did her first 70.3. Swimming is her worst part and she does backstroke primarily because of her shoulders. She said it wasn't terrible today. Two of the three laps were downwind.

Doing a race last year, I noticed a chick passing me up real quick and she was doing the back stroke. I finally caught up to her on the bike and asked her if that was her doing the back stroke. She said yep b/c that was her stroke on her college team. She was fast. Pretty sure it was the fastest lady's swim time.
