For any of you old rec.sport.triathlon folks, you’ll be happy to know that it appears that Tricia Richter (tri baby) snagged a lottery spot to Kona yesterday. Best wishes to her!

congrats! TriBaby!
Hey Mark!..
Sam
Very cool…I have read some of her race reports from years ago and they always brought a smile to my face. Never met her but she seems like very good people.
Good luck Tri Baby!
She seems to be incredibly lucky, since this is the second time she gets in through the lottery… And btw, I resent you calling me “old rst folk”! 
Third time.
That’s awesome - best wishes for a great race in October!!!
Sam,
How about you and I apply again next year for 2006…5 years after the last go around? I’ll be 50 and I wouldn’t mind taking another crack at The Big One after my 15 hour survival fest with the winds of '01!
Best,
Mark
(and Cathy…I’ve always figured you must have met Tricia somewhere along the way out there…have you? Good luck to you this fall as well!)

Thanks!! And yes, Tricia and I have met many times and raced against each other (she always beat me).

Third time? Damn… if I ever run for the lottery, she’s writing my letter for sure!
Paulihno was an old RST folk?
Paulinho and I are the same person… Now I’m pretty sure that L2T and Brian286 are ENTIRELY different… entities…
