They were going to do a relay - don't you know y'all?
On Sunday the individual Sprint would be on their plate;
Two races in one weekend for heavens sake!
They rolled into town at just past the crack...
Getting up at 3am is totally whack!
Rabbit Fuel! |
Packet pick up went smooth as a breeze -
Not much to set up in transition if you please!

Team FBG is relay ready! |
Team FBG has a certain requirement
It's Specialized bikes - now don't
get bent!
Specialized bikes rock! |
Fifteen hundred meters then she could come in!
The ears make you swim faster! |
STEB got caught up with some swimmers off course -
She corrected herself - there will be no remorse!
Before she knew it she sprinted all the way to transition -
And the Beast was there in her position!
STUR was there to help exchange the chip...
Then the Beast ran out with her bike lickety-split!

The Beast returned with a report of
lots of wind -
Then off on her run- Killer Carol
she did send...
Getting hot and STUR started to develop a blister -
Did this stop Team FBG? No way mister!
In the end the girls came away with the 2nd place prize -
It was nice to try on those trophies for size!

FBG Relay Bling! |
Less distance to drive and a later
start was it.
Arrived nice and early - check in
again was smooth;
Organize transition - they got in a
groove!
Team FBG ready for the individual Sprint race! |
On the way out of transition - STEB
thought she saw wheels like her own...
But wait! That's not right - it's HER bike - hold the phone!

Wave number 5 went off at 8:16...
But the silver caps? They weren't
too keen!
The water temp was awfully nice for
a swim:
It's 79.8? You've got to be kidding!
STUR was just ahead of the Beast and
STEB -
They cruised into T1 - three abreast!
The Beast was the first one out on
the road...
Followed by STEB and STUR - that's
no joke!
STEB enjoyed the time on Trixie her
bike -
Was she happy with her split as well? Yes -
outta sight!
After T2 she wheezed her way through
the run -
But had a negative split when it was
all done!
STEB also ran into some old masters
swim friends...
And hopes to see them on July 4 for
the free triathlon again!
STUR's transitions left a bit to be
desired -
Under her butt someone should put a fire!
She was relieved to make it thorough the 14.6...
Hopped off her bike after she unclipped!
Felt pretty good on the 3.1 -
Even though not much shade from the sun!
Found the rest of her FBG team -
Just waiting for the awards ceremony it would seem!

Sprint Check! |
Margie the Beast kicked @$$ again...
And defended her podium spot from
last year - a win!
Made a new friend Judah who is into
white rabbits -
Remembered STUR from last years bay
swim! Is this becoming a habit?
Have a Coke with a Superstar?! |
Ken the announcer loved their relay
team name:
And had fun announcing Fat Bottom
Girls, not ashamed!
The Beast with Ken the announcer! |
Spotted the Rock Hall vice mayor
dancing...
To 'Turn Down for What' - no
misunderstanding!
On the way home the Beast treated
them to some tunes on the ukulele -
Sounded great for only playing a
month - just crazy!
The Rock Hall race weekend was a grand success -
Thanks to everyone at VTS/MTS!
Love this rap! Congrats on y'all's podium finish -- love the trophies and bling. I didn't know the Beast plays ukelele! And that's funny that someone remembered STUR from the Bay. Must've been the rabbit ears?
ReplyDeleteThanks, CBun! It was a fun weekend. A tad warm, but that's better than rain! YES! The lady remembered STUR and the ears from the Bay! And I then remembered STUR telling me about that after. Weird!
