CFT Race Report...

Nice little sprint race to get some "speed work" thrown in during preparation for Ironman Louisville.  Not so much speed work to report from the race.  Came out of the water in 4th position ahead of Grogan and Picciano but for some odd reason was placed on a bike rack 6 racks down from the elite rack???  Had a fast T1 considering where I had to go but came out in 6th as Grogan and Picciano breezed right through.  They hooked up on the bike and away they went.  I found out really soon on the bike that I would have very little turnover and felt tired throughout the whopping 8 miles.  Came off the bike in 6th and stayed there till the finish.  With my high mileage for Louisville I knew that my speed would not be there for this super sprint but didn't realize it would be that bad!!  Oh, well... Not to worry as this was to be a recovery weekend.  Back at it on Monday.  Congrats to Kevin Grogan on a great day as he seemed to race very smart and came off the bike fresh and ran very well.  HAPPY FATHER'S DAY to all of those Dads out there!!
