West Milton Triathlon

This is Goose in Leon's C1 Pro Boat (right ride up at this time!)

AJ couldn't decide if it was PoPo making those sounds or the Geese at the pond! Jeff was the first person down the hill into the park. He was thrilled with that.

Ready to roll with Ken Davis.

I think he was happy with his race.

I checked the website late last night and the overall times were available but the splits weren't. Speed Feet had a full house yesterday and they have lots of numbers to sort through. I was surprised that some people cut the cycling course short. Obviously, no way to cut the canoe or run course short. I can't wait to see the splits.

Goose won the solo division by 5 minutes. He had the 4th fastest time out of all 350+ people. The 3 guys that beat him - Jeff Coudron, Brian Barker and Ken Davis were almost untouchable Saturday. Goose was lucky and rode with Ken Davis (Leon Burk's son-in-law). Ken has been running, but hasn't cycled much. The guy is an animal, can't imagine how good he would be if he was able to ride more. Not sure how much time he could have cut off if the boat would have stayed open side up.

Doesn't matter - Goose had a blast. It was just him, nobody to blame and nobody to blame him if things went wrong - and the only thing that really happened was getting caught between 2 wakes and going over. His run - he didn't struggle- had trouble breathing with the wind in his face, and he was glad it was over. His bike, said one half was easy other have was into the wind.

Saw people that we really only see once a year - watched a few people race their first triathlon (and did very well) - Another great Milton Triathlon in the books.
