Go Tech! What a great weekend at SIRA's. 3 gold, 1 silver and 1 bronze for Tech. 2 other boats were in the finals too. This pic is the novice womens 8 semi final. Here, they finished 3rd after GA and Grand Valley, but they made it to the finals. With the 5th fastest time going into finals they got third!! It was SUCH a good race. They missed 2nd by about 1 second, and the won third by about a second. Coach Cassi and I got to follow most of the way on our bikes. It was really exciting. We both had to change our underwear after the race. These girls rock. They responded SO well.

So we had our fun, but now it's back to training again. Many teams at Vails will be out for blood I'm sure.
