Just got back from the CapTex Tri. Windy as all get out. Didn't arrive early enough to see the pro men finish but saw the pro women winner clock a time of just over 2 hours. It wasn't as humid as last year so there didn't seem to be as many medical issues, although the 6th place woman immediately collapsed and was taken to the med tent. The bike is a 3 lap course and we stood for a while at the u-turn where, after making the turn, you can either exit the course or continue to your next lap. It amazed me how many would go into the turn with their inside pedal down. Some would hit it, some wouldn't. Saw one woman go down in the turn but she got up, took her bike to the side of the course, got her chain back on and then continued on.
