I'm curious who your special drafter friend was ;). Nice work on showing her who's boss!!! :-D<br /><br />Can't wait to hear about the run!! xoxoShanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11226590006329406452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4763535275333116577.post-74638413409825907562009-08-18T07:36:14.410-07:002009-08-18T07:36:14.410-07:00That guy must have hit you HARD on the swim. Glad...That guy must have hit you HARD on the swim. Glad your hand didn't fall off.<br /><br />And 11 laps - I would have lost count and gotten lost. That requires some serious focus. Glad you lost the drafter. Like you, I am not aggressive, but on the bike I can be just plain mean. I have choice words for people who draft or ride far to the left and I am think all kinds of terrible thoughts. Then I get to the run and I'm nice Angela again and wave at everyone and shout encouragement. I don't know what it is about the bike.<br /><br />And Nate does not look happy in that picture!

They are always ...I love your race reports Marit!! They are always so detailed I can picture exactly what's going on. Plus you really crack me up. :) A few comments:<br /><br />1) I'm almost certain Nathaniel and I are kindred drivers. And that you and Oscar would get along just fine with your fake-braking. :)<br /><br />2) I absolutely LOVE the fact that your bike is just laying there on the ground!!! :)<br /><br />3) GREAT SWIM! Especially because you did it with a numb left arm. OUCH!!<br /><br />4) That bike sounds fun! It also sounds like you really worked it. Great job. And good job for getting rid of your free rider. Geez.<br /><br />5) Can't wait for part II! :)Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16247635973514495690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4763535275333116577.post-20232492532528627802009-08-18T04:29:45.699-07:002009-08-18T04:29:45.699-07:00Call out the Drafter for Public Shame and Humiliat...Call out the Drafter for Public Shame and Humiliation!!<br /><br />And poor Nate, not only does he have to get up early...he has to put up with a "fake braker."<br /><br />He is truly Saintly.Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02026264504416133051noreply@blogger.com
