This event was STELLAR.  I couldn’t believe the hardcore triathletes that come from all over the country to these events.  Some of the winners had just flew in from another state the previous day.  Not only that, they ran a triathlon the day before.  Race, rest, fly to CO, race, fly home, race, race, race.  So hardcore.  I love to see such dedication and commitment to a sport.  It’s very inspirational.

The Expo day was so great.  We really got some one on one time with the families, athletes, and supporters of the event.  On occasion, we would even get the meanderers that were just chillin’ in the sun at the beach.  A beach date on Boulder Reservoir is on my list of “things to do”.  Many came with furies of hunger, requesting that they sample a little of each flavor.  I’m stoked that they got to try of it as much of it as they did.  They got the full Bear Naked treatment

Race day.  I saw some individuals with claw marks on their back from the swim.  Some looked like they took a digger from their bikes and received some minor road rashes.  Finally, some serious massages to the legs finished off the run.  These athletes haul!  We have such respect for these athletes.  Seriously, nothing can hold them back.  We got some seriously beaming smiles from our parfaits.  For many, the parfaits just hit the spot.  We had a lot of athletes ask us if we were going to stay after the event to sample…of course, dudes and dudettes!  We’re here to support all of you.  And when they came for that shear parfait…shear delight.  Yum yum.
