Race Photo from 2 Weeks Ago

I went off the course in this race resulting in going from 3rd overall to a MOP/BOP. Total heartbreaker. Anyway, a couple of good things came out of it, I finished the race and actually PR’d my 5k, and I got a pretty sweet photo out of it. I never buy these things, but this one is nice looking I think.

Imagine how fast you would have gone if you had your shoes on…

Ha, the photographer was just outside transition.

Bwaahaa…I love that the first comment on this was a smartass remark.

It’s a great photo, I would have bought it too…but when I look at mine, I usually pass…

Flawless, I would have bought as well, total cool factor, including feet out and ready.

It is a really good photo. I was trying to find something else to criticize and I came up empty handed. That’s a keeper for sure.

come on! his seat’s too high!

:slight_smile:

I spent several seasons wondering whether anyone would ever get a picture of me with my feet in the shoes.

What can I say? I like to approach T2 with my full attention on the crazy stuff the other riders are doing around me, so feet come out early.

Why do people post this stuff on ST ?

Useless.

I am very sorry if I wasted your Slowtwitch browsing time by posting something frivolous. I assure you that it will not happen again.

Great photo. I never get good ones.
Photogs seem to like sitting at the turnaround or transition in all my rides.
So I’m always shoeless and in the drops or going 2mph in the drops at the turnaround barely visible behind the masses.

I’ll get a nice one some day. Looks like you finally got yours. Need something good to justify that $80 or however bad it is now.

not you …the photo … a little sensitive for a Friday

How did the photographer make your theighs look so powerful? My photos always make my theighs look like little twigs.

When you’re pushing 8k watts your thighs will look powerful as well…

or

The camera adds 10 pounds.

Who’s sensitive for a Friday?

See my signature.

Excellent photo.

(just photoshop that you were #1 and you’re good to go)


I got nothing! Buy it you cheap bastard!

Actually I just looked at my thighs and realized that they ARE little twigs. That must explain why I passed 600 people in my IM run. ; ^ )
