Big weekend!

Quick trip to race The Southwest Xterra Championships in freezing Lake Las Vegas. We got caught in that storm big time. Great to see and race against all of our  Xterra competitors from the past. Was surprised at how many flew in from around the country. I thought we traveled far. Great to see the entire TeamUnlimited. They wed us in Hawaii on the beach a day before the World Championships in 2001. Treated us like a Hawaiian King and Queen. Won my World Championship title that race too. Cool. They are a class act when it comes to putting on a big event. And they typically designed the course to be: Gnarley. Jodi and I both placed 5th Sunday. In a huge field of typically smoking fast Xterra competitors. Stoked with that. I am in the same zip code on the race course as the four just ahead of me.(and they know it :)

                        Raced LA Tri series # 1 Express the following day. Lots of La Verne in the top five on the results page! Jodi placed first female overall. Dillon first male overall. I was 4th overall and Devon fifth overall. Go La Verne!!!!!!  Robert Little raced "The Double" and earned some hardware at Sundays race too. Legs are naturally toast and will happily take a few days off from training. Sure is nice to be back on the Xterra tour again.  Still just as tough and challenging as ever. With more and more fast competition.............just how I like it.
