Ultramax Quarter Ironman
Competed in this yesterday. Very professional event, and well organized. I was wanting to break 3 hours and came through with a 2:40. I need to become faster in the run, as I got my butt handed to me. I rocked the bike, and at one point was flying along ala David Millar speed of 30mph on flat ground. I probably averaged 25mph when it was flat, which felt really nice. However that bike doesn't like climbing very much, and the first 5 miles are hills.
I did see Amy Strahan and she was in phenomenal shape as always. She rocked to a very good 3rd place. Nice job Amy.
I can say with pretty much confidence that this is the hardest triathlon in the St. Louis area. The run is so hilly its sick. Everyone should do it at least once.
