Jesus, it was only a week and a bit ago but feels a lot longer. I should have posted something about the race before this, but after the race and the poor result there wasn’t much to say. I was a disappointed with the 37th place, but in the end there were only eight seconds between me making the pack out of the swim and thereby getting a top 20 result, and missing the pack and having to work my ass off alone on the bike, as was the case. Being that close and not getting into the pack is pretty crushing. I battled on and rode well and also had a good run. The support that I got during the race was just amazing, if only I was racing in a higher position to give them something to really cheer about. It was only my second time racing TriAthlone but it is definitely the best race on the international circuit, and to have the best guys in the world racing there this year was great to see. Well done to all involved who made it such a great event.
