The Triathlon went well. We finished strong. It was a mini sprint timed event. Meaning, you see how far and fast you can go in 10 min swim, 15 min bike and 15 min run, all back to back.
Here are my results:
10 min swim: 1/4 mile (17.5 lengths of the pool)
15 min bike: 4.64 miles
15 min run: 1.53 miles
Total: 6.43 miles in 40 min.
It all went well, but I really struggled on my run as I felt like I wanted to throw up the minute I stepped on. We ate Chinese last night and although I did not eat a lot, it did not sit well with me with all that exertion. So, in that regard, the run was a huge struggle, but I made it through. I looked at other people's times and I think I am somewhere in the middle where I finished. We will get the other area YMCA's scores sometime soon and I will get the official results tomorrow I think for the 20 people who did it here. All were pretty fit athletes, so I am pretty pleased with my results. Included in participating was the "All American Amateur" triathlete who finished around 8.6 miles total. She followed us and ran at a 9.6 mph pace!! So, all in all I feel good and am proud of setting a hard goal and going for it!
