Brother. Google John, David, Paul, Laura. Paul is the dad and has been a top age grouper since forever. A kind and inspirational person. I have not met Laura, but I have the privilege of knowing John, David and Paul. I whine to Paul so often, he is in my speed dial.
In at 7th place is a budy of mine who works out at the gym I used to work at Fred Constantini. Fred’s a fantastic athlete and I do not know how he does it with like 4 kids!
you guys were scary fast. I was there today, probably watched you start as I was in the Clydes (5th wave). I finished in 1:18.53, you could’ve looped the run course and still caught me. Had fun though, and it was my first tri.
I was there as a spectator and it should be noted that the top 7 elite guys came in off the bike at the same time. No penalties were given but I was told by a couple of the top guys that it might as well have been an ITU race. Not that it matters or that anyone is surprised, but just keep that in mind when comparing times from the top 7 guys to the rest of the field.
