Date: June 27th, 2005 |
So, it’s common after a big race for all the triathletes to write up race reports and send them out on listserves. I’m not quite that cool, but I am pretty psyched about finishing the race so I figured I’d tell you guys all the details. WARNING: It’s pretty boring unless you’re into [...]
