On the drive home I told my husband I wouldn’t necesarily say the score was:
American Triple T – 1 Kati – 0,
or even American Triple T – 0 Kati – 1.
It was more like American Triple T – 1/2 Kati 1/2.
We finished the race. We stuck to our 60% effort on Friday and Saturday. We stuck with our goal of enjoying ourselves and really soaking up the experience Friday and Saturday. We even, for the most part woke up Sunday feeling good. Sunday, oh Sunday – it all went south. I’ll give the full report later, but the numbers will tell the tale – our HIM time on Sunday was almost 8 hours. The vultures were circling and it was a true death march. But aside from about 20 very dark miles on the bike we still had fun.

Hours of sleep: 11
Number of Races: 4
