Great job.
What a fun race concept. I wonder how many champagne glasses they gave out.
Congrats on the AG win! I'm sure that next time you'll get a sub 20! Hey, it's a learning process, right? Great job though.
Running for two!

Ghettopops, thanks!
Kitteh, thanks! It was definitely a fun race, great concept. Absolutely a learning process, and each race I learn a lil more about how to race part of it better, now I just have to put all the pieces together in one race. LOL
Mickey, thanks! I'll always be a penguin at heart, no matter how fast I get.

Now that's a fun way to spend New Year's Eve! Congratulations, Dave! Fine work. I think sub-20 is pretty much in the bag for you, given how new you are to racing. Just keep training and you will get there. The question is, how far under 20 can you go.

Runny, thanks!
Bin, thanks! Definitely looking forward to seeing what I can do with some interval training.
Baboon, thanks! I figured it was probably better than how I used to spend New Year's Eve! lol
Wow, you are very fast. Congrats on the bling.
