Hope to see you in another endurance race in the future.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00925665272351378693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-678386087335983147.post-70859672379743722922009-09-23T00:14:01.516-04:002009-09-23T00:14:01.516-04:00Were you wearing a McGill jersey?

I had taken a couple spills which slowed me down for a bit until I got my confidence back.

At the 2 hour mark or so I almost caught up to you, I don't know if you saw me but either you picked up the pace or I slowed down (had a cramping episode as well). At the end the gap was about ten minutes. Good race.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00925665272351378693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-678386087335983147.post-17115029692102293692009-09-21T20:34:37.015-04:002009-09-21T20:34:37.015-04:00Hey, thanks guys.

Of course, baby oil isn't even something we would normally keep on hand, but soon enough we'll probably be running out of the stuff.Disco Stuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11029250453621966723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-678386087335983147.post-34922946788758680112009-09-21T19:30:10.211-04:002009-09-21T19:30:10.211-04:00Yay Stu!

Congrats on your second place finish. Very impressive showing!<br /><br />My friend and I were also down from Ottawa doing our very first MTB race ever and I have to say I've never had so much fun and pain on my bike before. I kept seeing the back of your jersey in the distance (Bushtukah right?) until the first feed zone, never to be seen again there after. :) Things turned into amateur hour for me after 80 minutes on the bike. A string of hard crashes took it's toll on my confidence and my DIY honey power gels that could not be squeezed from their flasks had me wasting time at the feed zones. Dry peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are just about impossible to get down when your in a hurry. I'm pleased with my 13th in the under 39 and I definitely will be doing the race next year. What a great time!<br /><br />Do you know if they will be posting the pictures up anywhere. I saw a few photographers on the course.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
