ok, so my race isn't quite the herculean effort of Knappo's but i'm pretty happy with it.
Miss V and I teamed up for the Fox Creek MTB Duathlon that was run today. An awesome event, which has a pretty good following, but with numbers down a bit due to both a running event (see Knappo's post) and a MTB event on the same day. All the same, in our category (Long course, mixed duo) there were 4 teams. Realistically, we didn't stand much of a chance though. We'd already struck a bit of success however, having won back our entry fees in a random draw, plus a couple of beanies!
Miss V did both of our run legs (5.4 km and 2.4 km) while i did the bike leg (2x laps of a 9.5km course).
I was figuring that anything sub-40 per lap is probably ok for me which I managed pretty nicely So I'm happy with that.
After the race, and after the bbq ( ) there was a random draw for various prizes.. we walked away with a large foam roller
