Jodi's Cali 70.3 RR- LONG... with PICS
Quote | Reply
I haven’t been around ST for very long, but I’ve learned a few things about Race Reports in my short tenure. First, you absolutely must label a race report as “long”. This is obligatory, whether or not it actually is long, and is a remnant of the Swimfan days. Secondly, if you want to get a lot of page views, you also must include PICS! This is so everyone who has an image of what you should look like based on your posts can be utterly disappointed by how ordinary you actually are. But…. Since my report is so insanely long and has so many pics, I am going to make you click a link to read it. Yes, you have to want it. Want it so badly that you click OUT OF ST!

http://joditris.blogspot.com/...nts-race-report.html

So there, I gotcha. Made you open the thread with the promise of pics of ordinary me, and the anticipation of a long race report, and this is all you’re getting. Unless you click the link. Click it… CLICK IT! You know you want to.

;-)

Jodi,
Great report.... it wasn't long at all...

I'm assuming you didn't stop to pee on the bike / run

You always write the best reports for anything you do - and this one is certainly no exception. I love the shot of you in the transition area with your medal - that says it all. Good job - and now you are really pumped for CdA - and we of course are ready to read all your stories for that from start to finish!!

Thanks for sharing!!

Our camp went by too fast - I wish we were all still there!!

Aw, c'mon, can't ya post it here? Pretty please?

Big Brother's screening software won't let me view blogs at work.
NOT that I would ever post to ST from work.
I'm just trying to help out those other ST'ers for whom this might be an issue.

PS - great race, running only 2mins off yer open 1/2 mary PB is outstanding!
(methinks you need to run another open half mary, yer probably even faster now than ya think, happy problems!)

I can't believe you made me leave ST...

As I said before, you did an awesome job out there! Way to hold it together over the last few miles, and I'm especially impressed that you remembered to not smile for the camera! Paulo busted me for that and I wasn't even having a good day!

Jodi,

Great race report. Now just where did you get the phrase.."bobbers and floaters" ?? Sounds vaguely familiar. Great to "meet" you out there on the bike course and chat a bit. You obviously passed me somewhere on the run as I was cramping and bonking along.

Good luck the rest of the year!

Mark

Congrats! Great RR, and it's even more fun to read them for races you've done in the past. Last year, I remember seeing that first huge hill on the bike course and speaking the same expletive. And yes, somehow the second run loop was more hilly than the first...

Again, congrats on an amazing time.

Way to go Jodi! You had a great, consistent, and just amazing first Half IM. You are going kick butt in CDA!

It was nice to see you just before the swim start.

Great race report! I was in your AG and saw you running in the opposite direction when i was on mile 10ish on the run course. I recognized you as slowtwitch Jodi by your smile...which motivated me to suck it up and finish the race with a smile myself. Thanks for the positive energy out there...You looked strong!

This was ALMOST crash number 2 in 6 months... I'm really starting to hate cars!

Andrea- You really helped keep me motivated at the end of the bike. I was directly behind you for about the last 5 miles. Great race- Nice PR!

Mark- Chatting with you broke up those hills so nicely! Sorry about the cramping on the run. Huge bummer.

ML- Sorry, you're going to have to go home to read the report :-) Posting pics within a report on ST drives me bonkers!

Blake- No peeing in the race for me! I'm not a big drinker. I try not to force it too much because overdrinking makes me more sick than being a tad dehydrated for some reason.

Thanks for the nice comments everyone! Can't wait for CdA!

:-)

Jodi

Jodi, great job out there! Awesome first half, now you set your bar high ;-) You looked strong and happy out there! Good luck with your training for CdA, you will do great! Keep up the good work and no smiling on the run ;-) Just kidding, it was great to see you smiling and enjoying your first half IM, that's the way to do it.
