On July 22nd Jo-ann Jenkins not only finished Ironman USA at Lake Placid, NY, she placed 4th her division!   Her coach, Karen Mackin had a feeling that Jo-ann had an intuitive sense for good Ironman race pacing, and was completely convinced when she discovered a nice evenly paced marathon despite Jo-ann accidentally leaving the Garmin in T2!   As Jo-ann explained in an email and brief conversation she had with another racer after the race... "One good thing about being old is we started running before all the new/modern technology and are very used to 'Old School Perceived exertion', could you image how lost I might have been if I was 30!"   Congratulations to Jo-ann on an awesome Ironman Race.
