Waco Miracle Match Marathon

Waco Miracle Match Marathon, brutal marathon that punishes you with major hills. The hills come just when fatique is setting in........, Beautiful set up. Great organizing, might carry a fuel belt , the water ran out later in the race. Notice I was wearing the Versatile CORIOVELO hat, that has built in earmuffs, and dry wicking material. Mostly made for Cycling but great for all around athletic events..

Triathlon Speed Skins

One of the other triathletes Nancy Henley knocked 10 seconds off of her 100. SWEEET...
