Rev3 South Carolina

Chris Hardbeck raced to a 5:31 finish in the half Ironman.  Members can read his full race report here.  Of the race he said “The hilly course, on a windy day, proved to be very challenging.  Had I not gathered so many tools from EN, both knowledge and fitness, I know that I would’ve boogered the bike and blown up on the run.  As it is, I turned in a solid effort and finished with a steady run pace that, although not a pr, was one of my faster runs on a very tough course.  That’s progress.  Looking forward to Year #2 with EN in 2012!  Thanks R & P and everyone else in the EN Haus!”

Races on 10/16
