victory is mine!

okay, so that might be exaggerating some! i did participate in a sprint triathlon this morning. it was a 300 m swim, 12.5 mile bike, and 3 mile run. it felt good, but i haven't done that distance in forever so i would change my approach a little next time.

i ended up getting second in my age group which was pretty good. it was a field of 25 so pretty decent. this is the cup that i won...the shower was even better, but at least i can use the glass. actually this is the only glass i actually own!

i will need to look at the results once they are posted to see how i did overall...i would assume definitely in the top quarter. some of those men in their late 30s and 40s can really crank. that is the good thing, you don't usually peak until your later thirty's....that means i have at least 10 more years of training to get better. maybe i should really think about a tri bike!

anyhow, it was fun...and hot. what else is new...
