Race Coverage - The 29th edition of the Elysian Triathlon was contested beneath a sullen sky, one which, like a pouting child, alternated between periods of silent seething and tantrumical outbursts.
Okay. That was a rather overwritten way of saying that sometimes it rained; sometimes it didn't.
And no, "tantrumical" is not a real word. "Tantrum" does not have an official adjectival form.
Not only was there off-and-on showers in Elysian last Saturday, it was windy and disturbingly chilly. The temp in that bucolic community reached 99 on Friday. It never got above 65 dank degrees during the race. The climatological discrepancy felt a little creepy, sort of apocalyptic-ish....
