Buenos Aires 70.3 Race Report - The opportunity to travel to Argentina (on RT $96 ticket + flier miles!) was just awesome. Mark flew down from Friday to Sunday so it was a quick one and we didn't have a chance to catch many sights together.

Race outcome: 7th pro female, in a cluster of women from 4-7. 4th place was one minute up.

Swim: 2nd to last out of the water and a "wha? come again?" swim split to first out the water to Georgia Bulldog, Olympic trials swimmer, Haley Chura (pictured). She can swim. :)
Bike: 4th fastest in a 3 lap SUPER crowded 2 lane course. No mechanicals or hiccups. Thanks Rochester Cycling!
Run: 2nd fastest half-marathon on a flat course, 1:22....

So, I gave it my all, a 100% effort, but now I'm excited to work hard for some improvements! I continue to be full of gratitude for my health, ability to do what I love, and for the dynamite people who surround me. Thank you for all of your support! It means the world.
Sponsors Ally's Bar, Hed Wheels, TerraLoco, Active PT, Rochester Cycling, Rochester Athletic Club, my family, coach, and friends...A sincere thank you.  RESULTS
