Ironman 70.3 World Championshps (St. George) - Part 2 of 6

 

This is a picture of most of the Boulder Racing team in front of the big World Championship sign.  We were definitely feeling legit with having a big crew here for the race.

They actually had this iconic structure in place when we were here for the Ironman 70.3 St. George in May but I avoided taking a whole lot of pictures with it because I hadn't earned my place at that point.

Here is a celebratory picture with the structure.

One with the crew being fairly normal or at least one that our coach would approve of.

And here is a slightly more rowdy picture of the gang.  I love these guys, they just crack me up.  It is such a rare group that can be focused and perform at such a high level without always taking themselves too seriously.  Perhaps that is why the team does so well...it is the perfect mix!

The next day, Friday, we once again headed over to the mouth of Snow Canyon for a race prep ride to get the legs moving again and primed.  Obviously, it is amazing there so no real complaints!  Normally we would have been riding the beginning few miles of the bike course and then would check in our bikes, but they asked people not to ride out at Sand Hallow Reservoir with the vast number of people expected with this World Championship race so we just dropped off our bikes and gear and headed back to the main house to conserve as much energy as possible.
