2013 Recap

Looking back, 2013 was pretty epic.  

According to strava, I recorded ~ 3600 miles on bike, and ~ 650 miles on foot.  

I finished 41st OA @ Wildflower, which was enough to help push SF Tri Club into 1st place for the Club Competition.

My 5 person team "Tsunami of Hurt" came in first place in the SF Bay Area for Team Bike Challenge, and with our contribution Tesla Motors finished second place in the company competition. 

I ran my first Dipsea as an invitational runner and came closer to breaking the coveted 1 hour mark.

I finished Vineman 70.3 in 4 hours 41 minutes for the 3rd consecutive year.

I did my first mtb race on a vintage 26" trek.

I finished my first & second century ride.

I finished second place OA at the Cinderella Trail Half Marathon. An epic sufferfest according to strava. 

I ran the fastest mile of my entire life. 5:10 baby. 

I came close to finishing top 10 at TNF 13.1, but ended up 16th place OA after some serious cold weather cramping consumed my body on the downhills.

I won my first cyclocross race, and finished 3rd place in the Norcal CX Series for Single Speed B's.

And most importantly I met a girl that is just about as crazy as I am about these things.
