Great stuff Hector!!!

Here a few swim pics of me that my brother took. It was a fantastic day.

This one is me with my lovely wife before the swim start. Man do I look fat in this top!!!!



This second pic is for Emilio so he could see how I looked in my new Forza Tri Shorts. These were fantastic and very
fast. At least they made me feel fast. And Emilio did a great job getting these to me just in time for the race.




This last pic is me comming out of the water after I passed a bunch of women from the wave that started right before ours.
There was no way she was going to beat me up the hill to T1!!!!




Overall, I think I did pretty good for my first Sprint Tri. I placed 26th out of 92 in the 40-44 AG. Our Company President,
who sponsored our team, placed 3rd in his AG, Our Mens relay took 3rd after two controversial bike penalties that
knocked us out of 1st, and our own ST'er Grant (aka Cyclonehockey21) took 1st in the 20-24 age group.
I still need to improve my bike fitness for the Chisago Lakes Tri a week from Sunday, but I'm definitely looking forward
to another great race weekend. Watching David Thompson smoke everyone on the bike after he was well behind the
leaders on the swim, was very inspirational. It really pumped me up for my swim. Man does he have some sic bike skills!!!!!

I'd love to see them. I would update your subject title to reflect that the thread has "pics and videos" so
people don't skip over all of the great work you did on your interviews.
