Shawnee Mission Triathlon,

Got up at 4am and headed out around 4:30. Arrived and parked around 5:30. Rode my bike down to transition and set up. Warmed up with a run and a loop around the bike course.
First wave went off at 7am. Great swim course with bouys all along a rectangle on your right. Easy to follow. The bike course was tough. Four laps around a very hilly course. The run went out through some well shaded open space.
I finished strong with two guys on each elbow. Waited 'til the last 100 yards and out kicked them both by around 3 and 5 seconds to grab 5th place overall.
Really well run race. Quite enjoyable.
Got back to Steve's house around 11:15 and quickly showered and packed. We left at noon and have been at it ever since. 5 hours of driving so far. I think we'll make it home tonight. Maybe 4 hours left to go.
