Very happy I even finished the race (my calves are still aching) and really glad I hung on to beat that guy at the end. I caught him about halfway through the final lap, then we were head to head along the beach (****ing sand!) up the junglecross run-up and down some of the final straights. He ended up casing one of the final barriers and I just drilled it for the line at that point. Huzzah!

PS. The hail was a nice touch.
PPS. Photos on the way.
