Wile E. vs. Beep Beep...

alex/mattBy Alex Hooke


For the second year in a row, I kicked off my multisport season with Trinona. Coming into the race I was less confident of my fitness level with a few less miles in my legs and a few more numbers on the bathroom scale than last year at this time. With a stacked field including DKT, Matt Payne, Sam Janicki, Nathan White, and Patrick Davis (all proven speedsters), my plan was to take the swim out hard, try to hang with the other racers, and not be too hard on myself if the pace was too rich for my blood.

Pre-Race: I arrived to a highly organized race site. My pre-race routine went smoothly thanks to nice weather, plenty of space, knowledgeable volunteers, and plentiful port-o-potties (with hand washing stations!). It was fun to catch up with some of the racers I hadn't seen since last season....
