Beth Heier - 2nd in AG - oly

Just saw these results - congrats to everyone and especially Jim LaMastra on one amazing effort. Will there be an aero helmet and wetsuit on sale in the Classifieds anytime soon?

The CTC guys were impressive. Having designed and ridden the course multiple times (I live 200 yards from the course) and know that any time sub 1:10 on the bike is impressive! But I was confident no one would crack 1-hr!! ;D

Glad to hear everyone seemed to like it. There is a survey link up on the website. Please take a minute to give us some feedback. We are already trying to figure out how to get the park to close off the road coming in to ease congestion at that one bad intersection. Overall though that seemed to be the only major issue. Everyone seemed really pleased with it, and also the fact that it was a tough course seemed to really leave an impression.

Beware though, we are already planning the DamTri 2010: Beaver's Revenge. This will feature the entire climb up Limber road which is a challenging climb, to say the least. We may also offer the Beaver Bounty in the way of an extra prize to anyone able to break 2hrs.

Should be fun....

Also, if food is a temptation for next year, they had a great pasta dinner for everyone after the race.
