Glad it’s over: Race Weekend

by Lindsay Cotter · 04/29/2013

You know when you have one of those weeks ( or days, hours, moments, etc.) when everything just seems to go wrong? It’s starts with one thing then just escalates from there? Yup, that was our past week and weekend. But in hindsight,  we laugh. Because although it didn’t go as planned, we still were safe, had fun, and were with each other.

So… let me begin. 12 days ago (after the hubs victory race), James caught a virus and got sick. It lasted 10 days. No workouts, at all! He got in one run before this weekend. We figured he might as well go and race since he really had nothing to lose, right? Haha. So we packed our bags, the good travel food,  and were ready for an easy trip down to Kemah.

Well, his car ended up needing repair so we had a late start. Then we got stuck in a down pour of a thunderstorm and missed the pro meeting. Oh well, no sweat, right? We’ll just email the race director, and we did.

IMG_20130427_170734

Once we got there and got him registered, we ventured off to find out hotel. Yes, I booked this hotel 3 weeks ago and had a confirmation number. Apparently that did not matter because they did not have our reservation. We called the helpline and they seemed to have our registration but the hotel did not. Hmmm.. sketchy. So off we went in search of a new hotel, at 7pm on race night.

IMG_20121015_140909

After the third hotel stop, I begged the Super 8 hotel man to let us stay and told him our situation. God bless him because he actually gave us the last cancellation. We were able to get into a handicapped room and he gave us a discount. At this point we are tired, hungry, and soaked (from rain). More thunderstorms rolled in and we decided to just hit the sack early.

4AM came way too early and so did the horrible coffee we inhaled. Winking smile Around 4:30am we got an email saying they had canceled the bike due to flooding. Yep, flooding. Just a swim run duathlon would be taking place.

Okay, not a problem. Right?

3 hrs later we finally get to the boat dock and put James on the boat. Oh, I forgot to mention that they were suppose to jump off a boat (1.2 miles out) and swim in. And instead of doing 2 boat trips for elites and age groupers, everyone was going to go on one boat at 7:45am now. No prob. But wait, James forgot his swim cap. Ohhh, we laugh. And we scrounge.

lead dog

I wait for the gun to go off and the elites to jump in the water for the swim.

See that little boat below? That’s where they were to jump off, eek!

boat

It was rough, rocky, and still a bit rainy. Finally I see 2 pack of swimmer coming in. One group was way right (due to the current) and one was way left, not even near the buoys. James got caught in the current and pushed to the right, way out. It was a mess (for him at least).

kemah water

7th out the water and on the .. run? But wait, there was a half mile run to transition. You had to take your cap with you to transition and drop it there in order in order to stay qualified (since there was no bike). James was running strong but then forgot to take his swim cap with him to transition. He ran all the way back to the swim finish (lost 4 minutes on the run) to get the cap and then ran back. Bad move overall, but at least he played by the rules.

Well that put him just out of the top 10. Not a happy camper but hey.. it was that kind of weekend. We’re home, we’re laughing, we survived the weekend and well… WE’RE GLAD it’s OVER!

kemah

Today is marvelous for that reason. Over, done with, moving ON! Phew!

thehealthydiva

Please tell me you’ve had one of those weeks, weekends, etc.?

Do you laugh at it after? Hope so because it sure does help ease the pain. Haha!

Cheers,

LC

    We definitely all of those days, weeks, months where things just don’t go our way. Often times, it starts out with just misplacing your car keys and goes down from there. After months of constantly having things go wrong with my knee, I sympathize with you. I know how hard it is to feel let down and I’m happy to hear you were able to laugh it off. There is ALWAYS more races! I hope the Cotters’ luck turns around, girl!

    It sounds like it was so full of bumps in the road that there was nothing to do but laugh.. a regular old “Comedy of Errors”. I am so sorry that things got rough, but it sounds like both of you powered through. God was preparing you for something down the road, something you can’t see now but you will be so grateful that this past weekend happened. With each obstacle, we grow, we become stronger and we laugh our arses off in the process. love2U

    Goodness, what a weekend you guys had. It’s great that you can laugh it off and move on. No sense dwelling on it, right? Yes, I had one of those weekends a year ago when 12 hours before I was catching a plane to go run a marathon, I was with my son in the ER. Everything turned out fine and one appendix removal later we had a great laugh over it. He still tells me he is sorry that I missed my race. Sweet boy!

    I’m sorry to hear it was such a challenging weekend for you two. That’s no fun. But, yes, sometimes all you can do is laugh about it. In fact, I had a moment of this just yesterday (which doesn’t quite compare to your whole weekend, but similar nonetheless). I was making my batch of almond butter, when somehow (must have underestimated my strength!), I pushed the tamper through the hole too hard, and it when straight into the blades. At first I cried, because I thought I had ruined my Vitamix, but Bob calmed me down and I realized I just ruined the tamper . . . and a big batch of almond butter. We were laughing about it later, but it was quite the clean-up at the time.

    You make my weekend seem better…sitting in a new apt with no furniture all day to get the cats settled, then going to a random hotel to sleep, shower, come back. I thought the cats were going to have a heart attack when I shoved them in their carriers to drive to Orlando…never again!

    I’ve not only had one of these weeks, but more than I care to count. They make for good memories though. And am I a horrible person for reading your post with a smile on my face? Not because of all the nasties you had to go through, but because of your attitude towards it? I can just completely relate to having everything that can possible go wrong, go wrong, and then looking back at it and laughing.

    Hope this week is off to a better start for you, Lindsay!

He never got the email at 4:30 AM (we don’t know why), so he didn’t know that it was changed to one boat and got there late and had to scramble! I think he also didn’t like the 1/2 mile barefoot run to transition. I’m kind of glad I was out of town to miss this tri…

Not b/c it’s funny but because I can totally relate and I frequently find myself on race weekends like this where everything and anything that can go wrong does and by the end of it you just have to laugh. Next race will go much smoother! and none of this cancelled bike course!? (ughhhh…)

    Crazy weekend! It just kept going, hey?! I think the only thing you could do was laugh!
    Hope you two enjoyed some wine after that!

    Oh wow… just one thing after another! I love your spirit and thankful heart. I’m sure it’s far easier looking back on it all instead of being smack dab in the middle. Love you crazy Cotters! 😉

    Awe love, I’m glad you two were able to laugh about it after it was all said n done. Bless your souls! Heres a tip: If you book through a 3rd party (expedia especially), your reservation may not always get sent through. Always call the hotel right after you book the room… just something I learned from working @ hotels.

    .. and after your weekend, go grab yourself & drink and have a fabulous day<3

      that’s the weird part, we did book through the hotel directly. I think they were just clueless. haha

    Wow what a crazy race weekend! So much has to come together with travel and add a race and it’s stressful at times!

    What a crazy weekend! I’d forgot you were in this part of the country…that totally stinks that it wasn’t a full race, but sounds like you both just rolled with it and made the most of a crazy weekend.

    Girl I know how you feel, sometimes things start off bad and end up just being bad, but other times they turn out ok. I am sorry for all of the troubles leading up to the race and then him not finishing where he wanted, but kudos to him for finishing and giving it his all! Your hubby rocks!

    Love you! Happy Monday!
