Wave fun

So I’m doing a sprint duathlon (5K/30K/5K) on Saturday. Last year at this race, I was 16th overall, so I did pretty well. It’s a well run race on a nice course, no complaints.

Having said that, they just announced the waves:
8:00 am - Run - 1st wave start. Men 39 and Under, Pros, All Clydesdales and Fillies (Athenas)

*8:01 am *- Run - 2nd wave start. All Women (except Fillies and Athenas as mentioned above)

8:03 am - Run - 3rd wave start. Men 40 and Over. All Relays

I’m 46. That’s a lot of traffic to get through.

Just start in the first wave. You might win the whole thing.

Sounds like the same one Erik Clark is doing…pat him on the back as you pass him! Good luck weaving past the masses…be careful!

He’s not entered in this race. I think we’re in different parts of the country.

This race has a major bridge on the bike course (think 40+mph on the downhill). I hope not to be weaving on that part!

You gonna be there? I don’t see your name on the entrant list. In any case, grab me and say hello (not during the race of course). Homemade disk, blue on one side, blue/white on the other.

yeah, I know your bike

no, I won’t be there, you’ve seen me run

of course, I could bring my kids and we can throw sticks at the bikers - ever see “Big Daddy” (think skates in Central Park)?

they were cheering for you when you whizzed by at Jersey Genesis last year, my son did the Bambino
