I see that Tri-California has posted the video from Saturday's race.  I'm only in there fleetingly but it's still fun to watch how the race played out. Next year I'll have to get into that lead swim group so that I can get some "TV time." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9n2C8qnr28Q

Yesterday's race was a painful battle of attrition.  More than a quarter of the field dropped out due to crashes or flat tires and a quarter of those who finished ran their second 10k slower than 40 minutes. The first run was rather brisk, as expected, but I managed to start picking guys off on the second lap and entered T1 with a ...
