Running 45:00 [1]
A wee run in the river valley after watching the public race as part of the World Cup Triathlon in town. The run was sloooooowwwww.
The VIP tent was mega mega impressive. I had way too much sun to take a beer, but the food was excellent. This event is a well oiled machine to say the least.
Too bad about the WC fields though, very small since athletes are resting for the Olympics, but them the breaks.
The public race was lots of fun to watch, although confusing as all hell with so many categories racing at once, no club who was racing what. PL's wife O-Dog sadly had a rough day and lost of her bitter rival Annamay Pierce (who's parents have a wicked Irish accent).
It was really hot. Really hot. But showed off Edmonton very well.
Highlight of the day: Steve Armitage was there! They never show his shoes on TV and that's probably due to the velcro.
