Race Recap: Reverse Tri

[irene adler]

Aw, that sucks about your bike, but it sounds fun!

Hope you get your sweet revenge!

[G22]

Way to persevere despite the bike issues! I hope when you retry, you absolutely take revenge on the course! Congrats on finishing!

Oh my gosh! You had some rough spots, but I'm so impressed you got your bike working again and finished the race. Congratulations!

I think you deserve a special award for most perseverance. I have no doubt you'll see a big PR next time.

Bikes can be such heinous assholes sometimes.

(But then they win your affection back, somehow)

Congratulations! Way to persevere and gut it out!

[sadlebred]

You are not allowed to hate your bike! Time for it to go see the mechanic since it behaved badly!

Great job on pushing through to finish!

[ktzmoh]

Wow! Congratulations on fighting your way through that! I'm impressed you soldiered on! Nice job!

[juliabug]

You did it! You should be much more proud of overcoming those obstacles than you would have been of making your goal time. I probably would have cried.

Way to persevere and finish through everything. I'm glad someone helped you, I frequently wonder if I would be able to do that in a similar situation. I hope I would.

[runblondie26]

Congrats in finishing your tri! I'm sorry it didn't go the way anyone would want it to go, but it can only get better from here. Tri's are so technical, I'm always amazed by people who do them.

[CallingAllAngels]

Way to go! I hope you kicked your bike when you were done.

I love that you want to do it again despite a bad experience. I'm sorry your bike was an asshole. Posts like this remind me that I need to get more comfortable with the mechanics of my bike.

[ilovecandy]

Congrats on finishing after the bike incident.

Congrats on your strong finish, especially with all of the shit that was thrown your way!

[Mushe]

Congratulations on fighting your way through! I'm so glad you made it!

I would have totally sat down and started eating donuts. Good on you for finishing!

Congrats on the finish! I'm sorry your bike tried to kill you, but i enjoyed your story.

[sassystace]

I am impressed you pushed through all that to finish--great job! Nice recap, I could totally see your bike falling on you in spite in transition. Next year will be a PR for sure.

congrats on finishing despite the horrible hiccup with the bike! That would have been enough to stop me. Nice job!

[emilyinchile]

I'm sorry you had such a crap situation with your bike, but congrats on getting it done! And at least you can be reasonably sure your next tri will be better, right? (knocking on wood for you over here)
