Socorro Chile Harvest Triathlon

What a day for racing! It is safe to say that the triathlon went quite well and was nearly perfect. As you should know by now, the run was about .2 miles short, but who cares!? We had quite a few locals in the race and our very own Alyssa Higgs won overall female, outlasting Terry Moore. Mike Montoya came in third overall for the men and more SSR's won AG awards. Read below for eveyone's splits (swim/T1/bike/T2/run/total) and you can see complete results HERE.

Las Vegas Olympic Triathlon

Yowsers. What a tough race and one of us wasn't quite ready (me!). The weather was beautiful and the course was great. Christian had another great showing, Cathy placed, and Matt, Robert, and I rounded out the soloists from Socorro while Julie and Catharine also had kicked butt in the run and bike legs for their relay team. The complete Vegas results are HERE.

Magdalena Ridge Road Closure

From the official web site for the Magdalena Ridge Observatory:

"Intensive road maintenance and repair, including cleaning out culverts, will commence on March 21. This is in preparation for the Single Telescope construction which will start on or about April 18. In consultation with Dennis Aldrich of the USFS, Forest Road 235 will be closed to the public on work days from March 21 until further notice. Work days currently are Monday through Friday, 6:00 am to 5:00 pm. The road is open during non-work hours and on weekends. In mid-April work days may be extended to six days per week, and hours may change. This site will be updated accordingly.

According to Rob Selina, site engineer for the Magdalena Ridge Observatory, the guards were misinformed and work days do not include weekends, so the road is closed only on weekdays from 6 AM to 5 PM, and some Saturdays for the next 3 years and possibly much longer, depending upon how long the construction lasts.
