Lake Waramug Triathlon

I did another one. This was actually my key race, the one I dreamed about. It was supposed to be kind of flat, a great race for beginners.....NOT!!!! About a week before the race, I get an email from Endureit Multisports (who by the way put on and EXCELLENT production). They changed the race course, with start, transition and finish on top of a Mountain. I mean Mountain. We're talking the last three miles on the bike were straight up, people were walking their bikes up the hill, it was so intense. And having grown up in Connecticut, and being familiar with the OLD race course, I thought how bad could it be. The run, was through the woods, on trails, then straight downhill for one mile, then one mile up (the same sucky hill) and then....up hill and down throught the finish shute!!!! And finish I did, but it sure wasn't what I was expecting!!!! It should be noted, open water swim, no problem!
