Thanks.
That 13 mile distance was with all three events, if I recall it broke down something like,
2.5 miles skiing
6.5 miles biking
4 miles running
or there about. That Max speed was definitely during the skiing portion. Even though it's a short race, it's surprisingly challenging, and a lot of fun.

that looks like alot of fun...ill have to get some XC skiis though

Nope, it's a downhill skiing course (with lots of flats). One dude was on XC skis and he chocked when we got to the first descent. (You can do it on xc skis though). My girlfriend did it on a snowboard, that I would not recommend, although she killed it in the end with biking and running, winning her age bracket.
